FRIDAY 7 OCTOBER
Light the Night 2016
Everyday 35 Australians are diagnosed with blood cancer; it takes more lives than breast cancer and melanoma. You can bring a little light into the lives of people with blood cancer by supporting a Leukaemia Foundation Light the Night walk.
Walk with us to help more Australians beat blood cancer through research and support. Gather with family and friends to shine a beautiful lantern; gold to remember someone, white for your own journey or blue to show you care.
Reserve your lantern today and receive your kit so you can reach your fundraising target at www.lightthenight.org.au

Yeppoon Community Markets
Farmers Markets encourage the community to buy locally from their farmers. Why?
