I'm fundraising to support my trip to Canberra as part of JDRF's Kids in the House campaign.

I’m fundraising for JDRF to defeat T1D!

I've been selected to represent the Mackellar electorate for the JDRF Kids in The House (KITH) delegation to Canberra on Monday 25th – Tuesday 26th November 2024. I'll be joining advocates from across the country over the two days, heading to Canberra’s Parliament House to reconnect with Federal Members of Parliament (MPs) and Senators. 


Our goal 


I am advocating for further funding for the Type 1 Diabetes Clinical Research Network. JDRF has made a lot of research progress but there is more to do, and Research Holds the Key.  

That’s why we’re asking for a further $50m over four years in the lead up to KITH. 

Type 1 diabetes can strike anyone at any time, and 7 Australians are diagnosed every day. Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy.

JDRF is committed to making the KITH 2024 event as accessible as possible for all families to be involved. That's why I am fundraising. 

DONATE NOW to help the #JDRFBlueArmy and change the lives of Australians living with T1D. Thank you.

Thank you to my Sponsors

So glad you’re going to represent our local area on this really important issue that has such a huge impact on the families who have to deal with T1D. Keen to hear your feedback after the event too.
