<div>We are running a 3-day, 200km adventure event called the Great Southern Stage Run from Walpole to Albany in November 2022 to raise funds for The Child Cancer Research Foundation.

</div>
<div>Australia has one of the highest incidences of childhood cancer worldwide. One in 500 Australian children will develop a cancer before 15 years of age — that’s 600 Australian children diagnosed every year. Childhood cancer is the single greatest cause of death from disease in Australian children, with three children losing their lives to cancer every week. In Australia, childhood cancer is second only to breast cancer in terms of the number of years of life lost by the disease.

</div>
<div>The quest to find cures for childhood cancer is one of medicine’s greatest success stories. Fifty years ago only two percent of children with cancer survived. Medical research alone has improved overall survival rates to 80 percent. With childhood cancer still the leading cause of death from disease in Australian children, there is more work to be done. There are still particular childhood cancers — such as brain tumours and neuroblastoma — with survival rates as low as 50 percent.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Child Cancer Research Foundation has a commitment to ensure ground-breaking research continues so that the future generations will be the ones to live cancer free. The Foundation relies on the generous support of the community to continue its vital research, as we do not receive State or Federal funding.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our goal is to raise at least $25 per kilometre! So get behind the cause and show your support!!
