Thanks to your generosity, fundraising proceeds from this incredible event will go towards the purchase of a palliative cuddle bed for the new Ripley Hospital opening in November — giving families the chance to be closer to their loved ones when it matters most.

A very special thank you to Jenny Jenner and Caz Osbourne from Kalbar Sunflowers, who organised this wonderful event and have been such incredible supporters of the Foundation. Their commitment is helping to bring real change to our community 🧡🌸🌻
