LIFE Pharmacy Group (LPG) team members have helped raise more than $77,000 for breast cancer research in one of the world's most celebrated ocean swim events.
LPG staff, friends and family joined forces with those from other companies, to participate in the 42nd Cole Classic Ocean Swim at Sydney's iconic Manly Beach, earlier this month.
This year, 70 swimmers (pictured) represented LPG, Pharmacy Phusion and Fugen Constructions to raise funds and awareness for Breast Cancer Trials, formerly called the Breast Cancer Institute of Australia.
The Breast Cancer Trials team said, "we would also like to say a special thank you to friends, family, and 'anonymous donors' for supporting our cause and being a part of our vision to improve and save the lives of people affected by breast cancer".
"Every donation, no matter how small, brings us closer to a future without this disease.
"As we mentioned on the day, total deaths from breast cancer have fallen 30% in the past 20 years, and this is largely due to treatments identified through our research program."
The LPG team has been swimming in the Cole Classic since 2010 and has raised more than $570,000 for various charities. JG
