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. 

Following the loss of my Mum to Lung cancer in 2024 and the devastating news late last year that my brother had been diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia, I felt like I had to help beat these diseases in some way. However, since I'm not a doctor, researcher or miracle worker, I had to work to my strengths - being a hairy beast who desperately needs a haircut!!

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.

How short should I shave my hair?

Ok! So I've passed $1500 and still have over a month to go. I've moved my target up to $2000, but honestly, as always, whatever I raise from here is going to be icing on the cake for me. Mostly because after promising my hair and beard, I don't really want to promise anything else.....I like my eyebrows....

Thank you, thank you, thank you all! I can't believe I reached my goal in less than two days! So, I guess that means the hair is coming off. I'm going to raise the target to $1500, maybe that will be more of a challenge, and I guess the beard goes if we reach that!
But seriously, thank you to everyone who has donated so far, this is fantastic and is going to have such a profound impact on moving towards helping people affected by the most devastating illnesses.
