Coastal Goddess, in collaboration with WomenCan, has announced its annual Ladies’ Lunch is set to take place on August 4 at Drifters Wharf, Gosford.
This special event aims to raise crucial funds for gynaecological cancer research with a focus on increasing awareness and supporting ongoing advancements in treatment.
Over the past two years, Coastal Goddess has raised just under $50,000 for WomenCan; testament to the dedication and generosity of our community.
Their efforts are more important than ever, as every day in Australia 19 women are diagnosed with a gynaecological cancer.
The cause hits close to home for Coastal Goddess.
Within the past two years, both owner Dr Kelly Needham and clinic manager Sam Wiggins have faced their own battles with cervical cancer, one of the seven types of gynaecological cancers.
Their experiences have only strengthened their resolve to support research and raise awareness about these life-altering diseases.
“Our annual Ladies’ Lunch is more than just an event, it’s a movement,” Dr Needham said.
“It’s about bringing our community together to support the women in our lives and to fund the research that will lead to better treatments and, ultimately, cures for gynaecological cancers.
“This year we are honoured to have ovarian cancer survivor and author Heather Hawkins to speak at our lunch.
“We are really looking forward to hearing her journey.”
