Popular female singing group The Lady Killers are creating an exclusive concert for Metlifecare.

Sir Peter Blake was one of New Zealand’s most celebrated yachtsman – leading teams and New Zealand to victory (wearing his famous red socks!) in some of the world’s most challenging sailing events. Having spent his life on the ocean, he was also a passionate and relentless champion for the environment.

To celebrate this legendary Kiwi hero, don your red socks (or red clothes) and join us for a ‘Big Night In’ to watch ‘Blakey’ – a documentary about Sir Peter’s life on the ocean, including rare, archived footage and interviews with friends, family and crew members. The movie will be available below, from 4.00pm on Friday 22 October, so you can watch it when it suits you on Friday afternoon or later in the evening.
