Claire Belford
My name is Claire Belford and I am excited to be part of the Cancer Council’s Stars of the North Dance Competition to raise funds and awareness for cancer research.
As a celebrant, I conduct both marriage ceremonies and funeral services, and I have the privilege of being part of life milestones- the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. In my work in the funeral industry, I am too often confronted with the harrowing grief that comes with losing a beloved friend or family member to cancer. I have seen and heard some incredibly sad, moving, but also uplifting stories of courageous battle and stoicism.
The effect of cancer in our society is widespread- no one is immune and everyone knows someone who has been either diagnosed, treated, or in some way touched by this terrible illness.
I am determined to do my small part to raise money for the Cancer Council, and so I’ve committed to dancing for this important cause! My dance experience is limited to parties, weddings and nightclubs of past- I’m not shy on a dance floor but with no formal training, this competition will really test me! I’m looking forward to the challenge and I am so proud to represent our local community.
Thank you to my Sponsors

Why haven't we cured cancer yet? Every day someone is somehow affected by this terrible intruder that enters our lives. It does not discriminate. It creates havoc on our body and the family and friends that watch their loved ones given the news and then the gruelling task of the treatment and physical and emotional recovery. Let’s all donate towards the Cancer Council Research in hope that one Nobel day all money raised and invested thus far and spent on cancer research over many decades will eventually find a cure for cancer.. A new cure for cancer can offer hope for the future.
