  The Warwick Foundation

  Charity Volunteer - Freelance Photographer (Non Paid)

  I delightfully volunteered my services (non paid) after being contacted to see if I'd be interested in photographing a gala auction event on behalf of Sam, "In My Shoes" in October 2008. A life altering charity event, which certainly puts your'e own life in perspective, as these very talented, passionate and dedicated people assist, so many young people struck down with cancer.Certainly in retrospect now in 2012, I think and smile that I had a chance to meet and photography those beautiful individuals and wish them all the very best of blessings. I still look back on that fantastic night and it certainly 'hits home' when you experience it yourself within your'e own family, as I did after my father, then mother developed cancer, sadly however my father passed away. But happy to say my mother is much better. I'd certainly do it again, my hat goes off to Samantha and the team at the one and only "The Warwick Foundation". Show less
