Support my challenge to fight pancreatic cancer

This September, I'm walking 213km for the 71 Australians who die from pancreatic cancer each week. 

Last year my Poppy was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and has been fighting daily against this horrible disease. We hear about cancer every day in but the real life the emotional impact is insurmountable.

Pancreatic cancer is now the 4th 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 12.5% chance you'll be alive in 5 years.

But research can change this. Your support will fund life-saving pancreatic cancer research and improve survival rates.

So this September, I'm challenging myself to get up, get moving and walk 71km to fight this terrible disease.

Please make a donation to support me and research into pancreatic cancer treatment and diagnosis. 

We will remember them. We will honour them. We will fight for them.
