7 marathons. 7 days. 7 states. All for one important cause.

Our very own Laura Firth is taking on one seriously big challenge as part of the Bravehearts 777 Marathon National Team for 2027: running 7 marathons across 7 Australian states in 7 consecutive days.

It's Laura's fifth year taking part, and she's aiming to raise $11,500 for Bravehearts and their work towards preventing and treating child sexual abuse.

To help her get there, we're hosting a fundraising day at Cheeky Monkey Rockingham on Saturday 28 November, with plenty happening throughout the day. Bring the family, round up your mates and come along to show Laura some support!

WHAT'S HAPPENING ON THE DAY?

• Raffle draws: Two chances to win, with draws at 2pm and 6pm. All proceeds go towards Laura's fundraising efforts.
• Kids' entertainment: Face painting and balloon animals from 12pm-3pm.
• Live music sessions throughout the day
• $10 kids meals all day long

ABOUT LAURA

Laura is part of the Bravehearts 777 Marathon National Team for 2027, and this will be her fifth year taking part in the event. As a survivor herself, this cause is incredibly close to Laura's heart. She's taking on this challenge to help ensure children know they have a voice, that there are people who believe them and want to help. Her hope is for every child to simply get to be a child, and have a safe place to come home to.
