Help us take a stand against blood cancer

Right now, over 170,000 Australians are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day. 

In the Branch, we are rallying support behind one of our esteemed colleagues, Mitch Thompson, who was recently diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia and is currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment. 

That’s why we're taking on the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave. By donating to our page, you’ll help us raise funds and awareness for blood cancer, and fuel life-changing research projects and support services for patients and their families.  

Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.
