Sunshine Walk 2025

I'm walking to support local families impacted by cancer including my dad

I’m fundraising to support the Albury Wodonga Regional Cancer Centre Trust Fund because everyone in regional areas deserves the very best treatment and care, just like those in major cities.

Every dollar I raise will stay within our community to help local people impacted by cancer. Those facing the cancer journey should be able to do so close to home, surrounded by the love and support of their families, friends, and communities.

The funds raised through the Sunshine Walk will help purchase new equipment for earlier diagnosis and treatment, fund staff training to keep our local workforce up to date with the latest in cancer care, support vital research and provide local access to national drug trials. Additionally, it will help fund wellness services such as psychology, exercise programs, and support groups.

Cancer affects us all, and many of us know someone who has been impacted. Let’s come together to support this essential local service. Every dollar truly makes a difference!

My Updates

My Dad

Saturday 30th Aug
On Tuesday 26th August my dad passed away from cancer with my mum by his side at age 62. 

My dad was a kind, generous and community minded bloke. He volunteered for the CFA, SES, Lions Club and local Hall Committee for many years. He was a great dad, always generous with his time spending many evenings and weekends playing chess, shooting hoops, bike rides through the Forrest, taking us to work on the farm and even doing karate with us for many years. 

My dad was strong till the end and never stopped being generous. Instead of flowers, he has asked that people make donations to the Sunshine Walk as a way to remember him and celebrate his life at his funeral. 

There is no other bloke like my dad. He is my daily inspiration and his spirit will live on through the family he left behind. 

I love you Dad
