I’m helping to beat blood cancer by taking part in the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave!
Those that know me, know how much I love my hair, that I have a 2 weekly barber schedule and that I love to look my best at all times.
But you probably don't know, that when I was 11 years old I lost my Nonna (grandmother) to Leukaemia. I saw the battle that she went through, the ups and downs and how harsh the treatment was. We were in and out of hospital and she struggled with what she had to endure, and these memories and pictures are engrained in my memory.
Every day, 53 Aussies are diagnosed with blood cancer, and 16 will lose their life.
That's why I've decided to take part in the Leukaemia Foundation's World's Greatest Shave.
With no screening programs available and no means of prevention through lifestyle changes, blood cancer is Australia's hidden cancer crisis.
I'll be raising crucial funds that help give those facing blood cancer all the support and information they need, while driving breakthrough research projects discovering better ways to diagnose and treat blood cancer.
You have the power to help me make an extraordinary difference. Big or small, every donation counts.

I'll be shaving all of my hair off, that's right all of it down to my shiny head, and if we can get the support to hit $10,000 I'll go as far as to shave my pride and joy, my beard off as well!
There's a lot lot more support and donations that have to come in for this, and I am asking each and everyone of you to chip, talk to your colleagues, your family and your friends about donating for this amazing cause!
