Hi to All

As the title says… simply… 

Cancer is Cancer!

Like most on this planet, our Family has been impacted. Gratefully, my sister is doing much better on her journey. Hers was not a blood related type but… 

Cancer is Cancer!

A person can indeed make a difference to help no matter how small & with a Village behind them, that difference becomes a magnifying ripple to many more…

Sooooo… this one person on Saturday 28th March 2026 will be shaving “Bare to Share” & would be most grateful to all of you (aka “the Village”) for your kindness, support & sponsorship to raise $$ for Blood Cancer Research & Resources with 2026 Australia’s World’s Greatest Shave!!!

Stay tuned & let’s make that magnifying ripple together!

With much gratitude…

Narda
