I'm fundraising for the World's Greatest Shave

Seeing the struggle of so many amazing people through my work as a Haematology nurse has given me so much perspective on how short life can be! It has always been on my bucket list to shave my head in general but why not do it for something i’m extremely passionate about…. life is too fkn short!!! Go buy the thing you’ve always wanted, go travel the world, go get the tattoo or go shave your head!! You only have one life… don’t waste it worrying about what other people think and live your life for YOU 🥰 

I’ll be shaving my head on SHAVE DAY (16th March 2025) whether it’s on my ward at work or surrounded by my friends and family… i want to raise awareness for all the amazing people having to put up a fight that didn’t want to have. 

——————————————————————————-

Blood cancer is Australia's hidden cancer crisis. There are 140,000 families facing blood cancer right now. And it takes the lives of 16 Australians every day.

These numbers are set to double by 2035. Unless we do something about it. That's why I've signed up for the World's Greatest Shave.

I'm raising funds for the Leukaemia Foundation to give Australians facing blood cancer life-changing practical and emotional support. And to fund critical research, bringing us closer to the day when zero lives are lost to blood cancer.

Will you be part of my World's Greatest Shave community and donate to my page?

Your donation means that together, we're working to stop blood cancer in its tracks.

Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.
