About Us

Since launching in New Zealand in 2012, Dry July has raised more than $11 million to support people affected by cancer across the country. Funds raised in 2026 will be distributed to the organisations below, helping them continue to deliver essential support services. This impact is only made possible by the ongoing generosity of our Dry July community.

In 2026 Dry July is proudly supporting:

Cancer Support NZ (home of Look Good Feel Better) – delivering free, practical programmes and online classes that help people facing cancer feel more like themselves, regain confidence, and stay connected.

Cancer Rehabilitation Foundation (PINC & STEEL) – supporting recovery through specialised rehabilitation and exercise programmes that rebuild strength, restore function, and improve quality of life after cancer.

Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ – providing vital support for men and their families, including a freephone information line, counselling, nationwide support groups, and Prost-FIT exercise classes.

The bikes are available to all the single rooms and on the floor above sits in the corridor, the table top exercycle is available for use in the family room and can be used by patients & family, often used during the boredom busters session that now occurs each Friday on the unit.
