Introduction

Welcome to my fundraising page!

I'm racing up the Sky Tower in full firefighting kit to raise vital funds and awareness for Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand (LBC).

Every day 6 children and adults in New Zealand are diagnosed with a blood cancer like leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma.

LBC is the national charity dedicated to supporting patients and their families, this support that can last months or even years.

LBC receives no government funding, so please sponsor me and help me support this great cause.

It’s simple, fast and totally secure. Just click the ‘sponsor’ button to your right, whip out your credit card, and LBC will email you a receipt directly.

Thank you for your amazing support!
