Laura's Trek the Trail Fundraiser

I’m stepping forward for a stronger tomorrow - again!

How far would you go for cancer care?

Last year we raised $115,000 towards a new regional cancer centre. The Toowoomba Hospital Foundation is working to raise $10m to build the centre, with $1.3m raised so far. This year I’ll be trekking again, as well as providing support and encouragement along the way for our amazing trekkers! Please help me help the Foundation get close to this goal!

In our region, nearly 100 patients walk through oncology and haematology clinics every single day. For half of them, the journey has already been a long one — travelling hours to Toowoomba just to access the care they need.

Currently, a single visit can mean navigating four different departments. With a catchment area covering 300,000 square kilometres, our facilities are stretched to the limit.

That’s why I’m taking on Trek the Trail. I’m raising funds to help the Toowoomba Hospital Foundation and Darling Downs Health build a purpose-built Regional Cancer Centre. This facility will bring life-changing services under one roof, making treatment easier, faster, and closer to home.

The best part? Darling Downs Health has committed to match-funding up to $10 million — meaning your support goes twice as far. Thank you for stepping forward with me.
