Help me take a stand against blood cancer

On 28 March 2018 aged 61 years young

Howard passed away seven weeks after being diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML)He fought with everything that he had to stay.

Right now, over 170,000 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.

Thanks for having your say
