Personal Challenge 2023

I'm taking part in Bandanna Day to stand up to cancer!

I’m taking part in Canteen’s Bandanna Day this year to support young people when cancer crashes into their world.

Cancer crashed into my world when I lost my Pappou Yianni (Grandpa John) to cancer earlier this year. Something I could have never prepared for. Someone I loved my entire life, no longer there to experience the joys of this life. A piece of my heart always missing. Moments and pain I will never forget. An incredible person and a fate undeserved. Suffering I am glad he is now without but, without him we suffer. 

The grief I experience everyday has lead me to a lot of places and this is one of them.

Canteen helps young people cope with cancer in their family, rebuild their foundations and connect with others in the same boat.

I was very grateful to be able to access a therapy service the day after and ongoing. This helped immensely and I want other young people to be able to access support as well.

Please help me to reach my goal and together we can take a stand for young people affected by cancer. 

Thank you for your support! 🤍
