I'm walking to raise funds to support the fight against cancer!

This year, I’m taking on Relay For Life to raise funds for every person who’s ever heard the words: “you have cancer”. In 2024, more than 150, 000 Australians will receive the news. 

Cancer has touched the life of my family many times. They were men and women, young and old, and different types - skin, prostate, cervical, oesophageal, brain tumour, & others. Devastatingly, the disease  took some of them from us, but most fortunately, others are still here. Similarly, over the years I have had friends and colleagues who were also diagnosed with cancer - and again, some are still here, and others did not win their fight.

Cancer is a devastating disease for so many. Barely any of us will go through our lives without being touched by this disease one way or another. For people living with cancer, their treatments can be long and stressful. For those without solutions, the future can be uncertain. It’s a concern shared by their loved ones, who care for and support them on their journey.

But with your support, I hope to help as many people impacted by cancer as possible. Together, we can support patients & carers when they need it most, empower people to reduce their risk, speak up for communities, and find new ways to better detect and treat cancer.

Every step I take is one closer to a cancer free future. But I can’t do it alone! 

Please donate to my Relay participation today and together, we can help Cancer Council provide life-changing support services, advocacy, prevention and research across Australia.

Thank you for stepping up to help me raise funds for all the wonderful work that the Cancer Council do! 💪🏼
