I've conquered for Cancer Council

In memory of my mum

My mother Veronika was my best friend. She was always remembered for her kindness and willingness to help and listen to others. She was quiet but strong, intelligent and classy. 

She could speak four languages and was well respected at the CWA and United Nations 

Ovarian cancer took her away from us and she never got to meet my second child Sophie who was born just a month after her death, four days before her birthday. 

I am walking to raise awareness for Ovarian cancer which still has no early detection test and is so misunderstood even by medical professionals 

I’m walking for a cancer free future

I’m taking on 7 Bridges Walk on Sunday 25 October 2026 and will be uniting with the community to walk 28km around Sydney Harbour. 

Every year in NSW alone, more than 56,000 new cases of cancer are expected to be diagnosed and the impact on families, carers and communities is significant. 

Please sponsor me and help those affected by cancer. Every step counts because all funds raised will help Cancer Council NSW work towards the vision of a cancer free future. Thank you for your support!
