Story

Get involved

I'm throwing a series of events throughout this year with my friends and family. There will be parties, coffee mornings, runs, cake sales, gym classes and more.. this will be the main fundraiser page. If you want to get involved, use this link on the day of your event. Send me pictures and I'll create albums of your event - every penny counts

Who I'm raising money for

Blood Cancer UK & The Adelaide Cancer ward. The charity who is giving me hope through research and knowledge of my disease, and the ward who is caring for me so very much.

I'll also be urging people to register to register Anthony Nolan and donate their bone marrow. This is free and it's a simple swab.

My story

This week, my world was turned upside down. I had an amazing job and was about to start an even more amazing job in the early spring of 2022 in Ibiza at the islands biggest pool party venue running amazing events and marketing. Ibiza and the world was returning to normality, my year ahead was so bright and this was meant to be my year. Until it was all snatched away from me. 

After getting COVID in early January, I didn’t bounce back as I expected, a visit to the hospital and a bone marrow biopsy later confirmed I had a type of Leukaemia, which is blood cancer in my bone marrow. 

The whirlwind of the last few days has been overwhelming. I’m in hospital and I’m starting treatment right away in high isolation and will be here for a little while. My life is on pause for now, but I’ll come back from this stronger than ever. I will not be defeated. 

I’m posting this because it helps me process what’s happening and makes me feel in control. I may or may not share anymore while I go on this healing journey. 

I appreciate every message I get. I can’t reply to everyone, but thank you for your love. I need ALL the positive vibes put into the universe for me.

If there’s anything you want to do - please make a small donation or sign up to the Anthony Nolan bone marrow register.

This is the research that is saving my life, this is the research that gives me hope, this is the research that will get me to the end of this nightmare. 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
