Help me 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. 

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

Post-cut Day 1

Saturday 13th Jun
It’s a little strange having short hair again after some 6 or so years. But looking past all the nerves on the day of event, it’s a welcome change — your head feels lighter, and coincidentally this being the week after exams, it’s as though you’ve cut off the stress you had been holding onto for the past few weeks. 

So to all those that told me you wished you had joined in this year, here’s a not-so-subtle sign that next year is your year. And to those who’ve supported this movement, thank you, and let’s see how far we can spread the impact in the days coming after!

Only 1 Day Away!

Thursday 11th Jun

Tomorrow's the day!

It's strange knowing that after over 6 years of having the same long hair, it'll all be gone in a matter of minutes.

To be honest, it's a little nerve wracking, a little exciting, so thank you to everyone who has supported this fundraiser so far! I really look forward to sharing the final result tomorrow!
