Peter 'Simmo' Simpson, Queensland trade union legend, remained a fighter for working people into his final days, campaigning for fair cancer funding and the right for people to die with dignity.

He never shirked from shouldering the burden of a worthy cause, from fighting for better wages and conditions for his members, to battling with governments to make sure public assets remained in public hands.

Can you donate to support others who bravely fight melanoma, just like Simmo.
