Speech notes of Simone Vojakovic (thanks to J.M. Barrie):
COURAGE IS THE THING. ALL GOES IF COURAGE GOES. IF WE HAVE COURAGE WE CAN SECURE AND PRESERVE OUR EFFORT TO SUPPORT THE WORK FOR A CURE FOR MESOTHELIOMA.
WE HERE TODAY HAVE A SHARED GOAL THAT WE ARE WORKING TOWARDS PERHAPS I should say ‘WALKING TOWARDS’. A GOAL THAT CAN ONLY BE REACHED WITH ALL OUR COMBINED EFFORT.
MESOTHELIOMA DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE. As we all know there is no safe level of asbestos exposure and with the PREVALENCE of asbestos products still in place or poorly disposed off or indeed newly imported for current construction, EVERYONE is being exposed to this deadly risk EVERYDAY.
THE ADSA WALK FOR RESEARCH AND AWARENESS DEMONSTRATES THE COURAGE REQUIRED TO SECURE AND PRESERVE THE SEARCH FOR A CURE FOR MESOTHELIOMA.
EVERYONE’S EXCELLENT FUNDRAISING EFFORTS MAKE POSSIBLE the ‘Asbestos Diseases Society of Australia Phd Scholarship in Mesothelioma’.
I CAN NOT PRAISE THE ADSA WALK TEAM ENOUGH FOR THEIR DEDICATION AND COURAGE. I ALSO WANT TO PRAISE EVERYONE THAT JOINED US IN HARVEY FOR THE WALK AROUND TOWN AND OF COURSE EVERYONE HERE TODAY.
THE SPIRIT OF THE ADSA WALK IS ‘IF YOU WALK ONE STEP YOU WALK WITH US’.
