I am climbing for rare

The Kosi Challenge is the single signature fundraiserfor Rare Cancers Australia (RCA), with the sole purpose of raising awareness and much needed funds for people across Australia impacted by rare and less common cancers.

In March 2026, I'll be climbing with hundreds of others, in support of rare, in memory of and with those living with rare themself – together we are a community and Kosi unites us all!

All funds raised through the Kosi Challenge goes directly towards funding the individualised, 360 degree person centred support that RCA’s team of specialist cancer navigators provide for patients, carers and their families.

Thank you so much for your support – now can I get a ‘Kosi, Kosi, Kosi – Oi,Oi,Oi!’

P.S RCA is a Federal Government-classified Health Promotion Charity. All donations are fully tax deductible.

Why I’m Climbing Kosciuszko (Again)

I’m taking on the Kosi Challenge — climbing Australia’s highest mountain — for the third time. Not because I love early starts or particularly desire uphill walks, but because the reason matters.

 

I’m raising funds for Rare Cancers Australia, supporting people whose cancers are under-researched, under-funded, and far less talked about — yet just as life-changing.

Climbing a mountain is hard.

Living with a rare cancer is harder — every day.

 

The discomfort I’ll feel is temporary. The impact of your donation can be lasting. If you can help in any way, I’d be incredibly grateful.

You don’t need hiking boots — just a kind heart.

Thank you for supporting this climb ❤️
