I AM WALKING IN HONOUR OF My colleague, Matt

Cancers a Killer

Cancer isn't something to be taken lightly. For many, you live with it unknowingly until it's too late. Donating will help with so much research and the tools needed to catch it and treat it. It doesn't destroy 1 life, it destroys thousands. Both the people immediately effected and those around them. Let's kill cancer together. 

Please help me, help the Perkins.

Cancer Stops With Me!

On Saturday 2 May 2026, I'm challenging myself to walk 35km as part of the New Town Toyota Walk for Women's Cancer. I'm doing this Walk to do something big for our mums, sisters, daughters, friends and loved ones living with cancer. 

This year I'm committed to raising vital funds for women’s cancer research at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research because the women we cherish deserve to live longer, healthier lives free from cancer.

There is so much more to be done to ensure that women of WA confronting cancer stay with us for as long as possible. I am training and fundraising in the lead up to the event. I would be so grateful for your support. If you can't join me (I'd love your company), please give generously to my donation page.

I don't want anyone to have to hear "You have cancer". Please help me and the Perkins make that happen.

Let’s walk towards a cancer-free future – together.

For those who can't

Walking for cancer for those who can't. Day 2, 3km done and dusted. Ready for day 3 tomorrow
