Bringing the Bush to the Burbs 2020

Bringing the Bush to the Burbs 2020
5th – 6th December 2020

After having to postpone the exhibition in April due to COVID, I was able to hold my fundraiser for Motor Neurone Disease Association of WA (MNDAWA) in December.

It was a huge success and I am thrilled to say raised $9,502 for MNDAWA.

Thank you to all those who attended and supported this fundraising event.

MNDAWA relies heavily on the support and generosity of the community to continue to provide a high level of care and support for those living with MND in WA.

You too can help:
