You have the opportunity to participate in Love Hope Strength Foundation Australia’s latest event – a coastal walk to show support for those touched by cancer, and raise money for young adult cancer care in Australia.

Following on from our inaugural Spit Bridge to Manly walk in 2010, on Sunday 26th February 2012 we will again follow the well known and spectacular scenic walk, led by Matt Adam-Smith, veteran of LHS treks to Everest Base Camp, Machu Picchu & Mount Kilimanjaro, and Ade Summers, head guide from the 2007 Everest Rocks trek who will again lead the trek to Base Camp later this year for Everest Rocks 2.

Our symbolic gesture as we walk will be to honour and support those we know and love who have been touched by cancer by carrying their names on prayer flags with us. These flags have become symbols of LHS worldwide, and have been carried on LHS journeys including to Pikes Peak in Colorado, The Rocky Stairs in Philadelphia and to the top of Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. The flags are then sent on to Mount Everest where they will fly forever.

We are seeking to raise funds through this event to improve adolescent cancer care via age-specific treatment and support services for young adults through CanTeen’s Youth Cancer Fund. For some cancers, the chances of survival are halved the day you turn 16. Young people are twice as likely to be diagnosed with cancer as children, but survival rates for the young adult age group have not improved anywhere near the same rate as for other age groups. The average improvement in survival over the last 30 years across all age groups is 50%. In the adolescent and young adult age group, it’s almost nil. Young people with cancer tend to be treated like much older adults or younger children – despite being physically, emotionally and developmentally unique. They need age-specific treatment and support services to improve their chance of overcoming their cancer.

Each participant will be provided with a roll of 25 prayer flags which can be “sold” for $5 each and dedicated to an individual or group who has been touched by cancer and then carried on our walk. We therefore ask for a minimum contribution of $125 per adult participant (either as a lump sum donation or by prayer flag “sales”). It’s a family event and so to encourage this there is no minimum fundraising amount for kids, although kids can also “sell” prayer flags at their schools if they wish.

To register your interest in this walk, please email Sharon Sale at sharon.sale@au.gt.com.

If you are unable to participate but wish to donate, please email Sharon for donation options (cash, cheque, EFT or credit card via Paypal).
