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.

Raising Awareness for Blood Cancer

Saturday 10th Oct
🎗️ Raising Awareness for Blood Cancer❤️

I’m proud to share my journey of raising awareness for blood cancer. On 13 September 2026 I took part in cutting my hair and donating it in the hope of helping someone in need. This was a meaningful step for me allowing me to contribute to an important cause and help make a difference in someone else’s life.

Blood cancer is a cause that holds a very special place in my heart. I have experienced the heartbreak of losing someone to this disease and I also know someone who is currently fighting their own battle with blood cancer. These personal connections have made me even more passionate about raising awareness and supporting those affected by this illness.

I’m reaching out to my family, friends and wider community to ask for your support. Whether it’s through a donation, sharing this post, spreading awareness or simply showing your support every contribution no matter how small can help make a difference.

Together, we can help raise awareness, support those currently fighting blood cancer, honour the lives of those we have lost  and stand alongside the families affected by this disease.

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to support me on this journey. Your kindness generosity and support mean so much to me. ❤️🎗️

Let’s stand together and raise awareness and make a difference.

My Journey with the World’s Greatest Shave 2026 ❤️

In 2026 I am honoured to be taking part in the World's Greatest Shave to show my support for Australians living with blood cancer.

Today, I am making a big cut and donating my hair in the hope that it can help someone in need. For me, this is about more than just cutting my hair. It’s about making a difference raising awareness and showing love and support to those who are facing the challenges of blood cancer.

I feel truly privileged to have the opportunity to contribute to such a meaningful cause. If donating my hair can bring a little comfort, confidence or happiness to someone going through a difficult time then it will all be worth it.

I hope that by taking part I can help spread awareness, inspire others to get involved and remind those affected by blood cancer that they are not alone.

Every little bit of support counts, and I am proud to be doing my part to help make a difference.

Thank you to everyone who supports me on this journey , whether through donations encouragement or simply sharing my story. Your kindness means so much.

Together, we can help bring hope to Australians living with blood cancer. ❤️

With love and support 
Shantell
