STRATFORD resident and nurse Lauren Slayford has worked in a variety of healthcare roles, and has seen first hand the power that education, support and compassion can have on improving the lives of disadvantaged children in the community.
Teaming up with well-known domestic violence advocate Rosie Batty, Lauren and eight others will embark on a six-day trek across the rugged and stunning terrain of the Overland Track in Tasmania this month, raising money to support children recovering from the trauma of abuse and violence.
Under the banner of the Australian Childhood Foundation, the participants are self-funding their passage and stay in Tasmania, and donating all money raised to the foundation.
