Broulee Winter Gala Ball in honour of Anthony Simmons

Gala Ball in Broulee on the far Illawarra NSW South Coast in honour of Anthony Simmons. 

Like many families across the country, Lee Louttit’s has been touched by skin cancer.

“My younger brother, Anthony Simmons was diagnosed six years ago with melanoma of the foot,” she said.

“Unfortunately, he was misdiagnosed. He put up an incredible fight and had all sorts of treatments and operations, but he lost his battle in September 2022.”

“He’s [Anthony) the driving force for us to do what we’re doing,” Ms Louttit said.

“The statistics are just horrendous.

“It’s not just cancers caused by sun exposure – Anthony’s melanoma was not sun-related.”
