After a recent bout with Breast Cancer, Martine recently swam the Newcastle Harbour in January 2020, raising money for a group she co-founded 20 years ago - Dragons ABreast.
After a subsequent breast cancer diagnosis and further treatment in 2022 including radical mastectomies, Martine again swam The Newcastle Harbour 2023 raising money this time for "Got Your Back Sista".
Martine & her partner have 3 kiddies who love the beach lifestyle of Newcastle & Lake Macquarie NSW. You'll likely see them boating around the sand islands of Lake Macquarie, fishing the local flathead spots & diving the famous maritime wrecks in the region. You might just catch a reptile or 2 if you visit the Lake Macquarie rooms with the whole family involved in reptile rescue. And of course there's Frankie the Beagle/Poodle who is as naughty as he is adorable - Frankie recommends you bring a large bone to your session...
