We're on a mission to beat the world's toughest diseases – one lap at a time.
The Harry Perkins Institute for Medical Research is at the forefront of ground breaking work, tackling some of the most challenging diseases that affect Australians every day. From cancer to heart disease and rare genetic conditions, their research is giving hope where it’s needed most.
For us, this plunge isn’t just about making a splash and it’s about honouring those we’ve lost, supporting those who have overcome hurdles, and those still fighting. At the Perkins, researchers are helping create a future where more lives are saved. Every dollar raised goes directly towards the Perkins’ extraordinary work, and every contribution brings us one step closer to making a difference.
We’ve set ourselves a big goal, and with your support, we know we can reach it. Please support our team, share our cause, and help us in our second year, to raise funds for medical research.
