    Auckland's Domain and Christchurch's Hagley Park will glow for blood cancer tonight

    Auckland's Domain and Christchurch's Hagley Park will glow for blood cancer tonight


    Leukaemia and Blood Cancer NZ are hosting its inaugural 'Shine for a Cure' nationwide lantern fundraiser walk.

    Around eight Kiwi's are diagnosed with a form of blood cancer each day.

    CEO Tim Edmonds says all the money raised will go towards research.

    He says this is a form of cancer that impacts many New Zealanders and this is a way to show support.

    The Auckland SkyTower will also turn teal, gold and white tonight - each colour representing different cancer journeys.
