Help Craig Broomhall - Face his toughest battle yet

$19,200 of $50,000 goal
Given by 119 generous donors in around 5 months

Help Craig fight his biggest challenge yet-Oesophageal cancer.

Christchurch, Canterbury

A recent oesophageal cancer diagnosis, an aggressive disease that affects the tube between the throat and stomach. Treatment starts immediately! A gruelling 9-month battle ahead. No income. No safety net. But one hell of a fight in front of him.

He won't be able to work.

He won't be able to earn.

He will be fighting for his life.

If you know Craig, you know he doesn't do anything halfway.

He gave us Methanol Madness - the energy and voice of Ruapuna Saturday nights.

He spent five years helping transform Ruapuna Speedway into a packed-out, professional event-behind the mic, behind the camera, behind the scenes.

Craig helped bring life back to the speedway. Now life has thrown him a challenge he never saw coming.

Now its your turn to help him complete the toughest lap he's ever faced.

In Craigs words: everything is on the line. I've tried to keep working, to push through, but that's no longer possible. The next nine months are about healing, and I need help to make that possible".

Sue Fortune's involvement (page creator)

Craig has been a family friend for many years now. Craig has been a tower of support to me and my family, now is my turn to give that same support back to him.

Use of funds

The funds raised will help Craig with the everyday living costs plus access unfunded chemotherapy treatments, transportation, healing therapies. Get through each day without the pressure of survival weighing on top of recovery.
