Help me take a stand against blood cancer

Right now, over 150,000 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.

So, what do you think? Do we push for $2,000? Can we make an even bigger impact for those facing blood cancer?

Every dollar raised brings hope, support, and life-changing research. Together, we can do incredible things. Let’s keep this momentum going!

Every single dollar counts and will make a real difference for people living with blood cancer.

I've already hit my first goal of $500

Sunday 2nd Feb
Thank You for Your Support!

Now, I’m setting my sights on the next goal—$1,000! There’s still plenty of time to donate, share, and even join my team.

The World’s Greatest Shave is an amazing charity, supporting vital research and those affected by cancer—a disease that touches more lives every single day. Every dollar truly makes a difference, so please give whatever you can.

Shaving my Head for an incredible cause- for the 3rd time

Saturday 1st Feb
This time, it’s deeply personal. I’m doing it for two incredibly special people in my life:

Jill – one of my best friends, a true warrior queen whose strength inspires me every day.
Ashley – a former student, currently in the fight of his life, showing courage beyond words.

For both of you, I’m proud to raise money in your names. If shaving my head in solidarity helps even a little—if it raises awareness, funds, or simply shows you that you’re not alone—then it’s the very least I can do. I only wish I could do more.

So, I’m asking everyone to dig deep—whatever your budget allows. Support my shave. Support my friends. Support this incredible cause.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you in advance for your generosity.
