Brad BATTIN (Berwick) (16:15): Today I rise to thank the Beaconsfield Junior Football Club and the Berwick Junior Football Club, who have had an amazing fundraising day. They have proven what community sport and support are all about. They raised money for the Gorozdis family. Aidan, who is just 17 years old, has been diagnosed with cancer again. It is just 454 days after going into remission. Aidan does not want to be the centre of attention, but the community and his mates all had their eyes on him as he went out and played football this weekend to show his strength and his commitment to getting through these challenges. It was an honour to be involved in this and to see the Berwick football club, who are the arch enemies of Beaconsfield, be involved in a guard of honour as Aidan came out onto the ground and join with the club to raise $8000 for that family. I also say to people: if you would like to donate, I will put the link in social media so you can make sure you can support Di. And to Di and your family: I and the community will always remain with you as you face these challenges.
