George walks for brain cancer

October 14, 2015

PHARMACY Guild national president George Tambassis has issued an appeal for pharmacies across Australia to get involved in the Walk4BrainCancer 2015 campaign, which is being run by the Guild’s charity partner Cure Brain Cancer Foundation. Fundraising walks will take place across the country, with the proceeds to help raise awareness and funds for cancer research. “As little as $100 per pharmacy would be fantastic, as that would sum up to half a million dollars and this is the sort of money that the Cure Brain Cancer Foundation needs to run some really important clinical trials on new and emerging medicines that are coming onto the market,” Tambassis said. Guild member pharmacies last month received a Walk4BrainCancer promotional poster and were urged to put it up to highlight their nearest walk - see www.walk4braincancer.com.au.
