Help me take a stand against blood cancer
3 June 2025 marks 20 years since my wife Liz was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia.
I’m starting at a bit of a handicap compared to Liam and Oliver, but I’ll be growing my hair and beard until the shave in June in an attempt to catch up
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.
Thanks for having your say
