I’m fundraising for the Leukaemia Foundation
I’m joining Bloody Mission’s Vertical 5km Challenge to push harder than ever — not for distance, but for impact. I’ll be climbing 5,000 vertical metres — for the Leukaemia Foundation. Why? Because right now, over 140,000 Aussie families are facing blood cancer, and 16 lives are lost each day. It’s a hidden crisis that demands action. I’m raising funds so families can access the emotional and practical support they urgently need — and to fuel research that brings us closer to a world where blood cancer no longer takes lives. Your support turns my effort into impact. Will you join me and help make every vertical metre matter?
Your Impact
Help me earn the Discovery badge. That's enough to fund 3 months of laboratory costs for a reasearch project to discover better treatments for bloody cancer.

Go Dean. Climb ‘em hills… although I reckon that a bigger challenge for you would be to just sit on your arse and do nothing do a day or two.
