Breast Cancer Awareness Month hits different this year

Breast Cancer Awareness Month hits different this year. This November marks 18 years since my mum Sally died of breast cancer and I'll be turning 40 (mum was in her 40s).

I'll be walking/running 58 kilometres this October to fundraise for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support world-class breast cancer research and help make Zero Deaths from breast cancer a reality.

By donating to NBCF, you'll be helping fund vital research into prevention, early detection, improved treatments and better outcomes for those impacted by breast cancer.

Please support me and this important cause, every donation, big or small, will bring us one step closer to a future free from deaths from breast cancer.

Thanks for your support. Together, we can help stop deaths from breast cancer💗

Thank you for all of your love and support as fundraising kicks off for Breast Cancer Awareness Month next month. 

I'm completely blown away by your generosity and have reached my fundraising goal within 24 hours! I will double my fundraising goal to $2,000 with all funds going to NBCF.

Your donations will fund vital research into prevention, early detection, improved treatments, and better outcomes for those impacted by breast cancer.

Thank you for all that you do and for having my back! xx
