On Saturday, 9 May the Maryvale Crown Hotel owner Sharron Lucas, hosted a community fundraiser bringing locals together and raising an incredible $26,000 for cancer research and clinical trials at Icon Cancer Foundation.
The event was inspired by Sharron’s desire to give back. A patient of Icon Cancer Centre for 28 years, she has built a close relationship with her oncologist, Associate Professor James Morton AM, and wanted to support others facing cancer. Read more about Sharron’s story.
A/Prof Morton reflected on Sharron’s resilience and outlook throughout her cancer treatment.
“Facing personal and health challenges that most of us can’t imagine, Sharron has always been positive, never complained and just got on with it,” he said.
