The Flamingoes are back in 2025!

The Flamingoes will be back in 2025 joining in the New Town Toyota Walk for Women's Cancer. Last year the event was held on the day after my last radiation session. After a gruelling 6 weeks of having to be at the hospital every weekday all I could manage was about 5 kms in the week prior and then just over 6kms on the day. This year as my fitness is starting to increase I'll be aiming to complete the full 35kms over the week - and most likely the first 5km and last 5km on the event day. It was such a beautiful thing to be a part of last year, and I'm looking forward to it again. I now have insight into what some of these charities do, and love what the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research stands for (I also happen to know the newly appointed Deputy Director Moira Clay!!). If anyone would like to make a donation you can do so below.

Please help me, help the Perkins.

My Updates

Cancer ends with me!

On Saturday 3 May 2025, 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, daugthers, 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.
