A special thank you to NRF Ambassador Tyler Fuller who once again poured his heart into hosting this incredible fundraiser — just a week after running a Bunnings Sausage Sizzle for the same cause! Tyler’s passion and resilience as a TBI survivor inspire us all. 💚

Congratulations to our winning team, who scored an impressive 35, and to all our raffle and silent auction winners! A big thank you to all our wonderful prize donors for helping make today possible.

Honouring John "Griff" Griffen’s legacy through brain cancer research 💛

Today, Caitie, Jaimi and the Griff family visited the Brain Cancer Research Labs at the Centre for Cancer Biology to see firsthand the impact of their incredible fundraising efforts.

Thanks to the $43,000 raised in memory of their beloved dad, Griff, the family is helping fund groundbreaking research led by Dr Chloe Shard. Her project is focused on finding new ways to overcome treatment resistance in glioblastoma — one of the most aggressive forms of brain cancer.

The research team is studying how certain cells within a tumour’s ecosystem can suppress the immune system and help cancer cells survive treatment. By disrupting these interactions and developing next-generation immune therapies, they aim to create new treatment approaches that are more effective against glioblastoma.

🧠 "We're beyond grateful for the opportunity to tour the cancer research facility and meet the incredible team working hard to change the brain cancer narrative. It was absolutely inspiring to see firsthand how the funds raised from Dad's Glioblastoma fundraising day were being used. We know he'll be smiling down with amazement. Dads legacy of giving hope, coming together, and making change continues through this groundbreaking research".

From all of us at the NRF — thank you for honouring Griff in such a meaningful and impactful way. Your generosity is helping drive discoveries that could one day transform how this disease is treated.
