We are honoured to support the Culbertson family and be one of the organisations that they have chosen to fundraise for ๐ฅฐ
A Walk for Anita ๐
On 8th November 2025, Anita Culbertson was diagnosed with breast cancer. In the weeks that followed, her family faced not only the challenges of a cancer diagnosis but also a devastating decline in her mental health.
Tragically, on 8th January 2026, Anita passed away.
Described as bright, caring, and full of life, Anitaโs personality left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her. Her family are now inviting the community to come together to honour her memory and raise awareness around mental health.
On 6th September 2026, the Culbertson Family will host an event:
