Iโ€™m on a mission to beat the world toughest diseases โ€“ one lap at a time.

No one wants to hear those terrible wordsโ€ฆ itโ€™s cancerโ€ฆ or itโ€™s heart diseaseโ€ฆ or diabetes or worst still โ€“ we donโ€™t know what it is.

And no one should have to see their loved onesโ€™ suffering..

Whether it is a loved one, family member, friend or much closer to home, when youโ€™re faced with a serious disease, you want the most advanced treatments possible.

Thatโ€™s why I am taking on the Perkins Plunge to raise vital funds for WA medical research at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research.

Iโ€™m swimming through the night in the middle of winter to help WAโ€™s best medical researchers. The funds I raise will support the brilliant minds at the Perkins who are committed to finding breakthroughs that will lead to breakthroughs and maybe even cures for the hardest-to-treat diseases.

Whether you join me in the pool (Iโ€™d love the company) or contribute to my fundraising page, your generous support matters now but, more importantly, safeguards our future health.

Together, weโ€™re helping WAโ€™s best researchers beat the worldโ€™s toughest diseases.
