Ruff Walkers

We're walking for Ruff!

My dad has been undergoing chemotherapy since March 2020 and this is the centre where he gets his treatment. All money raised will enable the centre to continue providing services to people in that region. For my dad, this means not having to travel 3 hours to Melbourne for his treatments. 

I have created a team which I’ve named Ruff Walkers (for those who don’t know my dad, Ruff is his nickname) and hope that I may have a few friends join me on the day. This walk doesn’t have to be completed in Albury and allows us to make our own route.

We're fundraising to support the Albury Wodonga Regional Cancer Centre Trust Fund. Regional people deserve the very best in treatment and care, just like people in cities.

Every cent we raise will stay locally to help local people impacted by cancer. People going through the cancer journey should be able to do it close to home, where they can be supported by their families, friends and communities.

The funds we raise through the Sunshine Walk will help pay for new equipment for earlier diagnosis and treatment. It will pay for staff training, so the local workforce can stay up to date with the rapidly changing world of cancer treatment. It will be invested in research, providing local people access to national drug trials, and it will support wellness services, like psychology, exercise programs and support groups.

Everyone in our community knows someone affected by cancer, so let's come together to support this vital local service. Every dollar counts!
