Help me take a stand against blood cancer
Right now, over 150,000 Australians are facing the devastating impact of blood cancer, and 17 lose their life every single day.
That’s why I’m taking on the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave. By donating to my page, you’ll help me 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.

Its now 2 weeks out. That's 14 days until I shave my head. Now it's time to start thinking about head wear. Do I wear a hat? Do I wear a beanie? Do I wear a scarf? Or do I simple wear nothing? Having been in this position before, I can tell you that sleeping in a beanie is highly likely as it gets quite cool of a night, and your head is where you lose most of your body heat from.
