Support my challenge to fight pancreatic cancer
This September, I'm walking 75km for the 75 Australians who die from pancreatic cancer each week.
Pancreatic cancer is now the 3rd biggest cancer killer in Australia, and because early-stage pancreatic cancer rarely causes symptoms, the survival rates are devastating.
If you are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer tomorrow, there is only a 13% chance you'll be alive in 5 years.
But research can change this. Your support will fund ground-breaking pancreatic cancer research and improve survival rates.
So this September, I'm challenging myself to get up, get moving and walk 75km to fight this terrible disease.
Please make a donation to support me, and together...
We will remember them. We will honour them. We will fight for them.

Dear Desley, I was very saddened to hear that your husband had passed away. This must have been devastating to you and all who knew and loved him. May you take strength in knowing he is in a better place and smiling on you; that you will be able to celebrate his life to the full. My thoughts and prayers are with you. All the very best with your walk in his memory. Best wishes, Greg Blatch

Hi Desley, Jungle is my youngest grankids new favourite song, mainly for the bass line and the drums (of course). My mum passed from pancreatic when she was 75 in 2005

Roger McLachlan wasn’t just a brilliant bass player — he was sunshine. His music, humour, and warmth lit up every room, and he leaves behind joy, love, and a lasting groove in our hearts.
