THE DEAD DAISIES SUPPORT THE “I TOUCH MYSELF” PROJECT

The Dead Daisies support the “I Touch Myself” project and we ask all our friends and family to support it too.

The I Touch Myself project was launched in 2014 following the passing of our talented friend, Chrissy Amphlett of Divinyls.
The project was created in Chrissy’s honour with a mission to create educational forums that remind women to touch themselves.

Chrissy was passionate about spreading awareness of the importance of early detection of breast cancer.

Chrissy’s husband, our great friend and previous drummer for The Dead Daisies, Charley Drayton has a message we think everyone should read:

“Every day we are reminded of how precious life is and the lives of those for whom we care strongly. It was Chrissy’s passion for life that continues to bring us all together.

It’s Breast cancer awareness month and a reminder to Touch Yourself.
This campaign has been nurtured by a passionate squad who have served Chrissy’s wish with immense undying support to help save lives.
Chrissy would be especially proud of the way Serena stepped up to the mic and the lens with her courageous execution to elevate a simple message for us to look after ourselves.

Both Chrissy and Serena are leaders in their chosen fields and champions at what they have become.
At the same time, they are human beings who have lived a large part of their lives in the public eye and been able to promote their ideas and messages.
I believe they would both agree that life and health comes before anything else. They both would stand in the line of fire when it comes to something that moved them deeply.
No one can stand in their shoes.

I feel as though we have all been touched by breast cancer. In 1991,it was controversial to say I Touch Myself on record. The more we say it, the more we can save lives. Prevention is the key and most important step to narrowing the chances of succumbing to breast cancer.

All men and women can help support each other. Please take a moment to touch yourself today. This could make all the difference to your life and those who love you.”
