I rise tonight to congratulate one of my local constituents, a businesswoman, Teri Welsh from Forrestfield Photographics, for her brave and wonderful efforts at fundraising on Friday when she was brave enough to shave. I note that the member for Gippsland and, I think, the member for Blair have also joined the ranks of those brave enough to shave. Of course, this is the annual promotion of fundraising for the Cancer Council and leukaemia research. I congratulate them on their efforts. I know Teri had a fundraising target of some $1,000. She did it very publicly in the Forrestfield shopping centre. The fundraising attracted staff from the Bendigo Bank and a number of small businesses within the shopping centre, including my own staff member Mark Reed. I also congratulate him on his support and braveness in shaving.
