UWA School of Social Sciences

We're participating for...

In April 2024, we're challenging ourselves to walk 35km as part of the New Town Toyota Walk for Women's Cancer. We're doing it to raise much-needed funds for women’s cancer research right here in WA at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research.

There is so much more to be done to ensure that the women of WA – our mothers, sisters, daughters, friends and loved ones – living with cancer stay with us for as long as possible. We are training and fundraising in the lead up to the event. We'd be so grateful for your support. If you can't join us (we'd love the company), please give generously to our donation page.

Please help us, help the Perkins.

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

Thank you to our Sponsors
