The MMBC is affiliated to Multiples NZ, which provides us with not only a link with the other clubs in New Zealand but information and advice via newsletters and resource material on all topics involving multiples. The spread of the New Zealand population often means that parents of multiple births are left to their own resources. For this reason Multiples NZ was formed so that help, Support and advice is available to all parents. Amongst other things, Multiples NZ lobbies for better support for families of multiples, initiates and promotes national research, organise clubs to get discounted products, and basically keeps us up-to-date with all issues relating to raising multiples.
