Paula experienced deep personal loss when her beloved sister, actress Carmen Duncan died from vaginal cancer in 2018. An active philanthropist, Paula is passionate about raising the profile of gynaecological cancers and ensuring increased funding for research to enable women to live better and live longer.
Paula’s active involvement in raising awareness for gynaecological cancer goes beyond her commitments as ambassador. Qualified as an event manager, Paula shared her vision in gathering talented players from the North Sydney Bears to kick-off the Norths Collective and WomenCan Team Teal Cup. Thanks to our valued event sponsors & partners and Paula’s efforts, the team was able to inspire spectators and contribute to our continued effort to raise awareness and funds for gynaecological cancer research.
Please join us in giving a warm welcome to Paula Duncan AM to our WomenCan family!
We look forward to a partnership with Paula and creating change for the better for women affected by gynaecological cancer.
