In memory of Lukey

The Bloody Long Walk 2024 - Sydney North

We're walking 35km in The Bloody Long Walk!

Our team is walking 35km in The Bloody Long Walk to help Australians living with mitochondrial disease.

In January this year, we lost our truly incredible father and friend, Luke, to Mito. Having battled in recent years and overcome stage 4 cancer it was ultimately the Mito which he couldn’t fight against any longer. He lived with it for a long period of his adult life, and was only diagnosed about 14 years ago. While testing for Mito has improved significantly in that time, there is so much work still to be done on finding treatments and maybe one day a cure.Β 

Mito robs the body’s cells of energy, causing multiple organ dysfunction or failure. It can affect anyone at any age.

Please sponsor our walk to fund research into desperately needed treatments and cures for this devastating disease.

Every dollar will make a difference.

THANK YOU!
