Lizzie’s Lunch
The 10th and final Lizzie’s Lunch fundraising event was held on Sunday 25 June 2023 at the Hills Lodge, Castle Hill supporting TSA (Tuberous Sclerosis Australia). This great event celebrated the life of Elizabeth Pinkerton and raised much needed funds for the organisation that is part of her legacy, TSA.
Lizzie’s mum, Sue Pinkerton has hosted this special lunch event each year for the past 10 years. TSA wish to thank Sue for her incredible efforts inspiring so much support from her community to help families impacted by TSC. Just over $22,300 was raised in 2023, bringing the total raised to more than $157,000 since its inception in 2014.
Lizzie’s Lunches have made a huge difference to the information and support services that are available to people living with this devastating rare disease.
