My Updates

Tuesday 17th Nov

On the evening of December 27th 2019 our dear Eleonora O'Connor-Risch, mother to Domino & Gavan, and sister to Anna, lost her battle with Pancreatic Cancer after a 5 year fight.

Cancer is a disease that takes many forms, and ongoing research is making small steps in the direction of finding prevention and cure for this horrible disease. By donating to the Garvan Institute, who were one of the organisations trying to find a targeted treatment to help Eleonora win her battle, we hope that we can contribute to help stop other lives being needlessly lost.

All proceeds will go directly to the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, and please do not feel obligated to donate any minimum should you do so - any amount is appreciated.
