Tammy Jackett and Adam Glover of Killcare Heights are set to participate in The Big Three Trek 4.0 The Last Dance from January 2-3 to help raise funds for the McGrath Foundation and its work supporting women with breast cancer, and their families.
This is the second year in a row that the pair have been involved with the fundraising initiative, which has secured the support of many influential Australians.
The 60km walk will see participants commence their journey at The Bayview Hotel in Woy Woy and finish at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
It is held across two days and participants can complete the whole journey or choose to cover a portion.
Since its creation three years ago, the initiative has raised $285,791.
Jackett said the trek had the support of a great mix of people including breast cancer warriors, an Olympian, former NRL stars, media personalities, models and everyday people who know someone who has been touched by breast cancer.
“The whole journey is 60km; it will be tough but it’s for an amazing cause,” she said.
“Participants completing the journey will arrive for the Pink Parade Walk before day one of the iconic Pink Test.
“Every donation counts and is going towards a really worthy cause.”
Federal Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid said the McGrath Foundation was an outstanding charity.
“We all know someone who has been impacted by this terrible disease,” he said.
“And we know that awareness and early detection is our best weapon against breast cancer.
“Through initiatives like The Big Three Trek 4.0 and other fundraising, the McGrath Foundation can continue to raise awareness for early detection and support Australian women with breast cancer.
“I wish Tammy, Adam and everyone involved a successful trek; if you can, please donate.”
