This event is incredibly close to my heart. I am currently living with Neuroendocrine Cancer (NETs) caused by a rare genetic condition called MEN1, or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 That’s why I started this event. To raise awareness, to honour those we’ve lost, and to make life a little easier for those continuing to fight neuroendocrine cancer.
After many years Tassie patients like myself are thrilled to have our very own dedicated part-time NET Nurse in Tasmania. The funds raised will contribute to the ongoing support from our NET Nurse in Tasmania.
What We’re Raising Funds for in 2026
This year’s funds will go directly toward updating and creating improved and comprehensive patient resources. NET cancer is complex and frequently misunderstood, and patients can feel overwhelmed by a lack of clear, trustworthy information. These new resources will help people understand their diagnosis, navigate their care, and feel less alone on the journey.
Why I Keep Going
Living with Neuroendocrine Cancer is not easy, and watching my family go through it has been even harder. But I have seen how much good can come from community action and compassion.
We are making progress. But we are not done yet as we strive for equitable support for Neuroendocrine Cancer patients.
Join Me in Racing for a Cure
With
appreciation,
Rob Hammond
