2023 FEATURED GUEST DESIGN
The featured guest design for the 2023 inaugural Ovarian Cancer Socks campaign has been designed by Zoe Davies (Digga Australia CEO and daughter of former Digga Australia CEO and Managing Director, Suzie Wright), inspired by memories of her mother, Suzie, who sadly passed away from Ovarian Cancer in 2018.
Remembered for her incredible leadership, elegance and boldness, the design features a striking, red-haired Suzie surrounded by her favourite flower, the lily, and two birds in flight that represent the concept of freedom at the heart of the campaign to see, ‘Every woman. Everywhere. Free from the threat of Ovarian Cancer.'
It's time to find a cure
There is currently no early detection test for Ovarian Cancer. As a result, around 70% of women are diagnosed in the advanced stages where only 29% are expected to live beyond five years. Even if treatment succeeds in removing the cancer, there is an 80% chance of remission.
Research makes a huge difference
Chronic underfunding of ovarian cancer research has resulted in a very low survival rate (49%) compared to other cancers like breast cancer (92%) and prostate cancer (96%) which have benefited from a high level of awareness and funding.
Help more women survive. When you purchase Ovarian Cancer Socks, you're funding life-saving research into the development of an early detection test and better treatments which are key to improving survival and quality of life for patients.
Get Involved
Make an even bigger difference by helping raise awareness for the Ovarian Cancer Socks campaign. From displaying a bumper sticker on your car, to sharing the campaign on social media or placing flyers up around your gym, we have resources available for you.
Over 10,000 Australians will lose their lives to ovarian cancer in the next 10 years
That's why we're partnering with the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation because their core focus is on the development and implementation of a reliable early detection program as well as improved treatments for women.
