Mother's Day Classic - Launceston, TAS

18/05/2026

Here’s another round of photos from an unforgettable first Mother’s Day Classic Launceston.

So many special moments, smiles and memories from the morning - we feel incredibly grateful for the support our community showed for breast and ovarian cancer research.

Thank you again to everyone who walked, ran, volunteered, donated, sponsored and cheered us on. We’re still soaking it all in.

Enjoy reliving the morning with us!

We cannot thank Nick H Visuals for donating his time and expertise to capture the day!

💗 Proud to support a cause close to our hearts 💗

We were honoured to be an in‑kind sponsor of the first Mother's Day Classic - Launceston, TAS, held at Inveresk on Sunday.

The Mother’s Day Classic raises vital funds for breast and ovarian cancer research. Since 1998, an incredible $48.23 million has been donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation and $2.57 million to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation.

Thanks to ongoing research, the five‑year survival rate for breast cancer has improved from 84% to 92%. While this progress is encouraging, there’s still more work to be done - particularly for ovarian cancer, which currently has no early detection test.

Events like this make a real difference, and we’re proud to play our part. Thank you to Maxene and Morgan for proudly flying the BBA flag on the day!

What an incredible morning at the 2026 Mother’s Day Classic Launceston.

To every participant, volunteer, sponsor, supporter and smiling face who joined us — thank you. Whether you ran, walked, donated, cheered from the sidelines or helped behind the scenes, you made this event so special.

Together, our community came together to honour loved ones, support those impacted by breast and ovarian cancer, and help fund life-saving research through the Mother’s Day Classic Foundation.

We’re so proud to have brought the first Mother’s Day Classic event to Launceston and so grateful for the incredible support shown by our community.

A special thank you to Nick Hanson for generously donating his time and beautiful photography as an event sponsor. His images have captured the spirit of the day perfectly and will help preserve these memories for years to come.

Thank you for sharing your Mother’s Day morning with us. We hope you enjoyed every moment as much as we did.

With love,

Congratulations to our raffle prize winners, drawn at 10:30am today. A few lucky people happened to win more than once, that is simply the nature of raffle draws sometimes. Raffle ticket ID numbers are included in the screenshot for transparency and verification.

A huge thank you to our incredible sponsors for their generosity and support in donating prizes for the raffle. This event would not have been possible without the support of local businesses and community organisations getting behind the cause.

Thank you also to everyone who purchased raffle tickets. Together, we raised an amazing $4,190 through ticket sales alone. Your support genuinely means a lot and will help make a real difference.
