SUPPORTING Ovarian Cancer Research

I walk for my Mum

This year, we’re walking in the Mother’s Day Classic for the third year in a row in honour of our beautiful mum, sister, daughter and friend Annie, who passed away from ovarian cancer in April 2024.

Ovarian cancer is one of the deadliest cancers affecting Australian women. Each year, around 1,800 Australian women are diagnosed, and sadly more than 1,000 lose their lives to the disease. Because symptoms are often vague and there is currently no early detection test, ovarian cancer is frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage.

The Mother’s Day Classic raises vital funds for cancer research — funding that leads to earlier detection, better treatments, and ultimately, hope for families like ours.

We are walking for Annie — for her strength, her love, and everything she gave to us. We walk to honour her memory, to support other families facing this devastating diagnosis, and to help drive better outcomes for more women in the future.

If you’re able to donate or join us, we would be so grateful. Every step we take is for her 🩵
