I'm supporting cancer research and the health of people in Australia 

Roughly 1 in 2 of us will receive a cancer diagnosis in our lifetime. This is a statistic that we need to change. 

So, I've decided to take on a personal challenge with the support of CanToo, to raise funds along the way that could be life-changing. From supporting the ongoing health promotion work CanToo provides, to funding incredible, innovative early-career cancer researchers.

We desperately need to find more solutions to cancer, from prevention, to treatment, and ultimately a cure. Please support me on my journey with CanToo by donating to my fundraising page today!

Thank you for your support!

My swim challenge

Sunday 30th Nov

Hi everyone, I’m 4 weeks into a 12 week ocean swimming challenge to help raise money for cancer research.  Wow it’s tougher than I expected! This week our beach session was tough and I felt like I was never going to make it back into the beach, but somehow my second wind kicked in and actually made the 2.5km distance! 

I’m definitely being pushed to my limits but I’m going to persist to the end as this personally means a lot to me as I lost my dear Dad to leukaemia, as well as other close family members to cancer.


If you are able to donate to this amazing cause to help me reach my goal that would be great! Thank you so much!

Here’s my Cantoo fundraiser page below and also tax deductible.

Thank you to everyone who has made a donation towards my goal
