I’m taking on The Long Run

This September myself and my family are doing The Long Run in support of my father and every other family that shouldn’t have to go through this. With dads recent diagnosis of metastatic prostate cancer and my uncles previous diagnosis. Myself, Maddy, Jake and Emma are partaking in The Long Run to help spread awareness and raise funds for such an important cause. 

One thing we've learned through this experience is just how important the research is. The work being done by The Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and other organizations dedicated to fighting prostate cancer is life-changing. Their research is giving families like ours a fighting chance—and for that, we are endlessly grateful.

As we navigate this journey, we’re asking for your help. We want to ensure that no one else has to go through the pain, uncertainty, and fear that we are. Prostate cancer doesn't just affect men—it impacts entire families. That’s why are participating in this fundraiser, to contribute to the amazing work these researchers are doing and hopefully make a difference for those who are yet to walk this path. Prostate cancer is Australia’s leading cause of cancer, 72 men are diagnosed every day. Together let’s make prostate cancer history. 

Please consider donating or spreading awareness. Your contributions are not just about money—they’re about creating hope, advancing life-saving treatments, and preventing the next family from facing what we are.

We are so thankful for the outpouring of love and support we’ve already received. Together, we can help stop the pain and make a real difference.

Thank you. 💙🙏
