I'VE PLEDGED TO STEP UP FOR Mum

This August I’ve signed up to take part in “Stepping It Up for Breast Cancer”, a cause that now hits incredibly close to home. 💕 I’ll be walking 58kms throughout August to represent the 58 Australians diagnosed with breast cancer each day. Sadly, this is no longer just a number. It became a reality in March when my beautiful mum was diagnosed. She’s now in the middle of treatment, facing it all with strength and determination. I’m walking to show my support for her as she goes through this journey, to raise funds for vital research and support services, and to stand with every family touched by breast cancer. If you’re able to donate, share, cheer me on, or even join my team, it would mean the world. 💖👟 #SteppingItUpForBreastCancer #BreastCancerAwareness #ForMyMum #BRCA2

Right now, 58 people in Australia are diagnosed with breast cancer every day.

Stepping Up for Mum

Wednesday 25th Jun

Back in March this year, my beautiful mum became one of the 58 Australians diagnosed with breast cancer every single day. After years of routine screening due to her BRCA2 gene mutation, our worst fears were confirmed. Sadly, this gene runs throughout our extended family including me.

This August, I’ve signed up to take part in “Step Up to Breast Cancer”, pledging to walk 58km, one kilometre for every Australian diagnosed with breast cancer each day. This cause now hits incredibly close to home. Mum is currently in the middle of treatment, facing it all with strength and determination.

Thanks to the incredible work already being done, the testing and monitoring available today helped Mum catch her diagnosis as early as possible. I can only imagine the impact continued research will have in improving early detection, treatment options, and outcomes for women in the future.

I’m walking to stand beside her, to honour her strength, and to raise vital funds for breast cancer research and support services. Every step is for Mum and for the thousands of others on this journey.

If you’re able to donate, share, cheer me on, or even join my team, it would mean the world.
