Daffodil Day Dip

My Activity Tracking

0
kms

In August, I’ll be challenging myself to plunge into the icy water of the Cobark River to raise funds for Daffodil Day 2026.

I'd be very grateful if you would donate what you can to my challenge!

The Cobark river runs through our property from near the highest point in the Barrington Tops (Pol Blue) .Β 

The water will be truly Β icy in August, but I'm up for the challenge of taking as many dips as I can that month (at least 10).

The funds I raise willΒ help fund world-class Β cancer research. Critical work, especially for rare cancers like mine, for which there are less treatment options, worse outcomes and insurmountable financial struggles for many Australians.

Your support would mean so much to me. πŸ’› πŸ’š
