Put Your Foot Down - walk for pancreatic cancer

Kirri Harvey lost her beloved husband Andrew to pancreatic cancer on July 15, a little over four months ago.

Now the Phillip Island local is holding a walk on Saturday December 14 to raise awareness and crucial funds for the disease — which claims as many lives as breast and prostate cancer each year but only receives a fraction of the funding.

The event, Put Your Foot Down, is a 4km family and dog-friendly walk along Thompson Avenue that starts and finishes at the Phillip Island RSL, Cowes, on Saturday December 14.

The walk will commence at 11am, with participants encouraged to arrive at 10.30am. Participants are also encouraged to wear purple, in memory of Andrew and others who have died from pancreatic cancer.
