Support my challenge to swim for breast cancer!

9 people in Australia die from breast cancer every single day.

This November, I am taking part in Swim For Breast Cancer for the mothers, sisters, daughters, friends and loves ones who are impacted by this devastating disease.

I am doing this to raise funds for National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support vital breast cancer research to help save lives.

Please make a donation to support my challenge and let's make a splash to save lives together!

Thank you for your support.

Wednesday 4th Nov

💗 YOU DONATED. I DELIVER MORE! 🏊‍♀️

I’m absolutely blown away by everyone’s generosity! We’ve already smashed my $1,500 fundraising goal in just FOUR days!

So, it’s only fair I raise the stakes!

🔥 18 KM JUST BECAME 30 KM! 🔥

An extra 12 km for those fighting, those who have survived, and those we’ve lost.

The donations might have reached the target, but the fight against breast cancer hasn’t stopped.

30 km. One cause. Let’s keep going! 💗

🩷 18KM FOR MUM. $1,500 TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 🩷

Thursday 22nd Oct

This November, I’m swimming 18km to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation. But this one is personal.

My beautiful mum was just 42 years old when she was first diagnosed with breast cancer. At 52, she faced it all over again. Two diagnoses. Two mastectomies. A lifetime of looking over her shoulder.

I’m now 42. The same age she was when her world was turned upside down. And I have a whole new appreciation for the fear, strength and courage it must have taken to face something so terrifying.

Almost all of us know someone whose life has been touched by this horrible disease.

My goal is to raise $1,500, and I’m asking you to please dig deep. Whether it’s $5, $20 or $100, every donation counts.

I’ll do the swimming. I’m asking you to help make every kilometre count. 🩷

For my mum. For everyone who’s fought. And for those still fighting.

🩷 Please donate if you can. Every dollar makes a difference.


Thank you to my Sponsors
