Walk of Life…with the Stars

The 6th Annual Leukaemia Foundation Walk of Life took place at the Tamworth Country Music Festival’s most talked about event. An exciting opportunity existed for fans to meet their favourite country music artist for a short walk around the streets of Tamworth to help create awareness and raise money for the Foundation.


Headed by, Amber Lawrence, the Leukaemia Foundation Walk of Life is an exciting event to give hope to Australians impacted by leukaemias, lymphoma, myeloma and related blood disorders. Gina herself was inspired to support the cause through a young fan with leukaemia.

Funds raised will help fund the Leukaemia Foundation’s Vision to Cure and Mission to Care for the 10,000 Australians whose lives will be changed by a blood cancer diagnosis this year. The Leukaemia Foundation also gives hope for a brighter future by funding the work of Australia’s best researchers.
