In August, I’ll be plunging into cold water for the almost 1 in 2 Australians who will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. 

Please donate to my challenge!

The funds I raise from my Daffodil Day Dip challenge will help power world-class cancer research to save lives.

Your support means so much to me. Please help create a cancer free future by donating to my fundraiser now! 💛

4th dip - bit rough today 7am

This was my goal for my first time - but will continue to dip now I have a photographer friend - I'm amazed as she swims every day. My goal now will be to try to do more often and maybe get to swim in this icy ocean.
