I’m taking on an epic challenge this October – and I need your support.

I’ll be walking 158km, not just 58km, for the 58 Aussies diagnosed with breast cancer every single day.

I want to push myself further, because for too many families, this fight is even harder.

For me, this cause is deeply personal. I lost my mum to breast cancer when I was just 11 months old. My older sister has since been diagnosed, but she is bravely kicking its butt. And most recently, another member of my chosen family has also been diagnosed and is currently undergoing treatment.

I wish breast cancer wasn’t so common, but the reality is that almost all of us have been touched by cancer in some way. That’s why I’m walking: to honour those we’ve lost, to support those still fighting, and to help create a future with more survivors.

I know times are tough for many people right now, but if you are able and willing to donate, even a little, it would mean so much. Together, we can make a real difference.

Your donation will fund world-class cancer research, prevention programs, and support services at Cancer Council, helping people affected by cancer before, during and after treatment.

Cancer Council is Australia’s leading cancer charity, working across every aspect of every cancer. They support families when they need it most, speak out on behalf of the community, empower people to reduce their cancer risk, and find new ways to better detect and treat cancer.

With your help, we can get closer to a cancer-free future.

? It’s all of us against cancer. Are you with me? Please donate to my fundraiser today.
