North Shore Mums squatting for Breast Cancer Research

In November 2024, North Shore Mums Founder Rachel Chappell was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.
She isn't alone. Every day, 58 Australians are diagnosed with breast cancer, and a further nine will die.
We want to make a difference to the lives of those Australians impacted by the disease - that is why we are taking on the 58 Squat Challenge to raise vital funds for world-class breast cancer research.
Please support our squat challenge to save lives and make a difference.
Every donation, big or small, will get us closer to reaching our goal and helping the National Breast Cancer Foundation end deaths from breast cancer.

Hi Rachel, I understand how challenging this time can be as I have had radiotherapy myself after a small carcinoma was removed. I am not in a good place financially right now but I guess every bit helps. I wish you all the best with your recovery. Wendy O’Hanlon www.stressstrainer.com.au
