Grace Williams

I have always said that I am a feminist and that I support women so I have decided to not just talk the talk but walk the walk as well, and to do that I will be swimming 10km in support of everyone in Australia that has or is battling cancer 🩷

Sarah-Leigh McMahon

The reason I am taking on this challenge is because I know too many friends and family with a breast cancer diagnosis. Reassuringly, 3 are 'breast cancer survivors'. However, this year two younger friends of mine, in their late 30s and with young children, have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Every kilometre I swim I will be channelling my strength their way, and sending them positive vibes to withstand the riggers of their treatment journey ahead 🩷

Imogen

I am swimming for a important person in my life, who is the youth pastors wife and also a beliefs and values teacher at my school. As well as in support of a lot of other people that have survived breast cancer.

Flavia

I’m swimming for all the amazing women I know who are battling or have battled breast cancer. Getting into the cold ocean isn’t my favorite thing, but it’s my small way of showing support for those who’ve gone through so much, and for the families who’ve lost loved ones to breast cancer. Sending love and prayers to you all. 💕

Vick

I am swimming for a lovely ray of sunshine from work, Tan. She is fighting hard to beat this awful disease. This is for you!

Ayaz from Rivo

I’m swimming for my loved one and to help raise money for breast cancer research. I hope this raises money for future research and helps anyone else with their battle.

To my beautiful Mum, to Tess and all the others who lost their fight, to those fighting and to future fighters .... I swim the black line towards a better cancer free future.

Carol Oleary

I doing this for my husband who passed away from cancer 4 years ago And for my daughter who is currently been treated for breast cancer. She winner the race and kicking goals because of her determination to beat this disease that took her dad. And because of all the research that is going into breast cancer.

Monique Connors

Kylie

Swimming has been a huge part of my mental and physical recovery from breast cancer, and now a great way to give back to someone else who really needs the support in their fight. Grateful to be here and have the opportunity to take part in this challenge.

Hayley

My beautiful cousin has had a hard battle with breast cancer so now I’m showing her how proud I am by giving back by swimming!

Sarah

This cause is close to my heart, having affected my Mum, Grandma, and close friends. With a 2-month-old baby at home, training is no easy feat — but every stroke counts if it helps make a difference. 💪🏼

I am so excited to be taking on this challenge for the first time, supporting a cause that has touched the lives of a few people I know. Having my son join me in the swim makes it even more special. I’m truly thrilled and overwhelmed by the amazing generosity of everyone who has donated to my page - thank you so much!! I can’t wait to get started on Saturday! ❤️

Michelle

I have pledged to swim 18km in November in memory of my mum Genny and my nana Lilly, for Aunty Pat and other close friends who have breast cancer. I am raising money for breast cancer research so that we can find a treatment, a cure and a prevention strategy for all women everywhere.

Deanna

Breast cancer has touched my family on both sides, and I’ve seen the pain it causes for everyone it reaches. Over the past year, I’ve made it my mission to raise awareness, share stories, and honour those we’ve lost through making a documentary. Now, I’m swimming 9km for the 9 people who lose their lives to breast cancer every day. Every stroke is for them, for their strength, their stories, and the hope that one day, no one will have to face this disease again

Stephanie

I have decided to swim for breast cancer and support a cause I’m passionate about. I would like to send out my support to all those living with, have a family or friend with, or have survived breast cancer. I’m holding myself accountable to exercise and raise funds and awareness for breast cancer research in hopes to find a cure 🩷

Marjolijn

I have joined the Swim for Breast Cancer Challenge to support vital breast cancer research. And also to keep myself accountable to swim/exercise at least 4 times per week. My thoughts are with those impacted by breast cancer, and I am reminded that every stroke/donation helps to fund research.

Amanda

I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer (stage 4) just 4 months ago. I am swimming for me, and for all others going through this. Raising funds for vital research to find a CURE for this disease!

Stephanie

I am taking up the Swim For Breast Cancer Challenge to raise awareness and vital funds for breast cancer research.

Jeff

I’m swimming to shine a light on the devastating impact of breast cancer — a disease that takes nine lives every single day. Through this journey, I hope to raise vital funds for research, so we can move closer to a cure and ensure that fewer families have to endure the heartbreak of losing someone they love.

Courtney

Swimming in memory and support for my Great Great Grandmother, Great Aunty and Aunty all diagnosed at the young age age of 62 💕

Apeksha G

They say a journey begins with a simple step, and here we are almost 365 steps since we first heard of her diagnosis. Women's stories are often heard and not shared, and for this reason, I am swimming for all these women.

I’m swimming for all the people breast cancer has touched, myself included, without the amazing help from researchers, doctors, nurses and families we all learn to swim and not sink tackling this huge battle.

Kabir

I am volunteering for this swimming challenge because so many lives around me have been touched by breast cancer,from family and friends to inspiring individuals in my community. As a student, I may not be able to fund massive research projects, but I can dedicate my time and effort to this event to honour those who have shown incredible courage and resilience while facing this disease. I'm proud to stand behind every swimmer, every researcher, and every family member, knowing that the awareness we raise and the funds we collect will help ensure better support and life-saving progress in the fight against breast cancer. Every stroke and every donation counts. 💖

Lily

I am swimming for all the lives around me who have been affected by breast cancer. People such as my own aunties, family, friends and anyone else who has been touched by this disease. I am proud to stand behind all of you to fund research, cheer on the people who are fighting and recovering from this disease and the others whose battles were cut short. Every stroke counts. 💗🫶🏼

Elle Raszyk

So many lives around me have been touched by breast cancer — so many amazing people who have shown strength, courage, and resilience. I’m swimming to honour them, to show my support for everyone still fighting, recovering, or remembering someone they’ve lost. Every stroke is a reminder that together, we can help raise awareness and make a difference. 💗

Brent

I will SWIM for all of you. This is the very least I can do for the people who have suffered or are suffering from this shitty disease. I can definitely swim for the nurses who see it day in, day out. I can swim for the kids, partners, siblings and parents who have lost family to this. XX.

Amy

I am swimming for every individual I have walked beside, continue to walk beside and will walk beside on their breast cancer journey 🎀 As a breast cancer nurse, I know how vital research is and I am honoured to do my bit to help in this way 💗

Throughout November, I’ll be swimming in honour of those who’ve battled breast cancer - especially my friend who has shown such courage. I hope my swim can make a small difference and keep their strength in motion. 🩷

Breast Cancer kills so many men and women. We need to make more people aware

Kerrie O'Rourke

My Beautiful Mum passed away almost 11 weeks ago from Breast Cancer that had matasticized to a mass around her oesophagus. It took her life in a very cruel and painful way. She had breast cancer in 1995 and beat it but this time she could not fight the disease. She fought to live right to her last breath. We need to find a cure for this awful disease. I will swim 40 laps a day of our 50 metre pool in the hope that i can raise money and awareness in our small country town of Warialda

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in Sept 2023. I started treatment in November 2023. I finished my treatment August 2024. My port was removed in September 2024. I commenced my ongoing treatments in October 2024. October 2025, one year now on some pretty nasty drugs. I still have a year to go. I am swimming 6 km because I can. Because I am not one of the nine.

Every day in Australia, nine lives are lost to breast cancer. Nine stories cut short. Nine families changed forever. This November, I will swim 18km in memory of one of them - my mother-in-law, my dearest friend. Her strength, grace, and laughter still echo in the spaces she once filled. She’ll be in my thoughts with every stroke, along with the many families who’ve lost someone they love far too soon.

Grace Coleman

Hi everyone, I have friends that have been affected by breast cancer, so I am swimming a minimum of 27km!!!

Swimming 20km for a loved one!!

Natania

I’m swimming 18km this November for them — for those we’ve lost, those still fighting, and those who’ve faced the long road of treatment with incredible strength. Someone close to me went through treatment, and seeing what they endured really opened my eyes to how tough this journey can be. No one should have to face that battle alone, and that’s why I’m raising money for breast cancer research — to help fund better treatments and, one day, a cure.

John

I am swimming to make a difference!

Bek Vaio

Cancer is a word not a sentence. Keep on keeping on. We love you and see you and swim for you

lets raise funds for people that we love who have either fallen or been diagnosed with/by breast cancer!!

Healthcare research is vital! Too many people have been impacted by Breast Cancer. Even though it is small I want to try to help in any way I can!

Breast Cancer is always close to home. The more research done the less we loose! Sending love to those affected by breast cancer.

I know we didn't know each other well but your kids brought so much light to my life and you would be so proud of them.

Brenda Wright

I am swimming 9km in memory of my dear friend Pam Allen who recently lost her struggle with this horrible disease.

Yah just swam my first 1 km in the pool only 9km to go !

Emily

I started swimming in February, and completed my very first kilometre in September. Swimming 9km is not exactly an easy challenge for me, but I am determined to absolutely smash this goal. I have been overwhelmed with the love and support I have received and am now motivated to swim far beyond the 9km. The biggest thank you, again to everyone who has supported me this far.
