Kim O’KEEFFE (Shepparton) (13:58): The community has come together once again to support two incredible local fundraising events. The Biggest Ever Blokes Lunch had over 1000 in attendance, raising awareness of prostate cancer. Close to $200,000 was raised. The proceeds from this event go to providing a local prostate cancer specialist care nurse at Goulburn Valley Health in Shepparton. On Sunday we had the Ladies Who Lunch fundraiser, supporting Goulburn Valley Health’s oncology unit. 750 ladies attended, and whilst the final figure has not been determined, it is expected to have raised around $100,000 – a wonderful effort from our local community.
