Support my challenge to fight pancreatic cancer

This September, I’m walking 75km in memory of Pete — an incredible man we lost to pancreatic cancer last year.

Peter was one of the good ones. Generous, funny, always up for a chat, and the proud owner of the best belly laugh around. He was a mate to many and a big part of our family. He taught my boys the importance of a firm handshake — something they’ll carry with them forever.

Pancreatic cancer is now the third biggest cancer killer in Australia. It’s brutal, often silent until it’s too late, and the survival rates are heartbreaking — only 13% of people diagnosed will survive the next five years.

That’s why I’m walking 75km this September — for the 75 Australians who lose their lives to this disease every single week. I want to raise awareness, honour Pete, and help fund research that could one day change these statistics.

If you’re able, please donate — even the cost of your morning coffee could help make a difference. Every dollar brings us closer to earlier detection, better treatments, and improved survival.

Let’s walk for those we’ve lost, and fight for those still in the battle.

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