MARK FERGUSON

"Being diagnosed and treated for cancer is really tough and raising money to fight cancer can be hard work as well. But 7 Bridges Walk makes fundraising so easy. All you have to do is get sponsored, then walk over, around and beside the best harbour in the world with family or friends. You will be doing so much good with each step so please get involved. I hope to see you there.”

Seven News Anchor, Mark Ferguson

QUESTIONS TO MARK

What are you most excited for at Cancer Council's 7 Bridges Walk this year?

This year, I am excited to help raise awareness and hopefully raise plenty of money along the way. Every dollar helps in the battle.

add remove

I have participated in 7 Bridges Walk since 2011, so this will be my 12^th year walking alongside Cancer Council NSW.

Why do you participate in the 7 Bridges walk?

It's such a wonderful way to take in our beautiful city and do a little bit of exercise; all while raising lifesaving funds for a cancer free future. It's a great day out for the whole family.

Do you have any tips for the day?

Stay well hydrated, apply your sunscreen and hat, wear your most comfortable joggers and don't forget to look up and take in our fabulous city.

7News has supported the event for many years, what's your favourite 7 Bridges Walk memory?

add remove

Way back in 2012, two of my sons, Jack and Ted – eight and 12 at the time - walked with me. We had a great day. But I think just meeting the many people along the way - those walking in memory of or to support their loved ones, their friends, colleagues, classmates all battling the disease. Truly inspiring people.

What's your favourite part of the Walk?

add remove

That moment you step foot on the Sydney Harbour Bridge along with thousands of other people, it's powerful knowing we've all come together to raise much-needed funds and awareness for such an important cause.

Why should the community get involved and fundraise?

add remove

The harsh reality is too many of us know someone who is battling or has battled cancer. Many have lost their lives and some have come out the other side. We can all do our little bit to support them. I'll see you on one of the 7 Bridges on Sunday 22 October.
