We often feature our wonderful CHECT mums in our stories, and we feel it’s important to recognise those amazing dads and grandads out there who go above and beyond to support their families as well.

For Father’s Day, we asked children (maybe with a bit of help) to nominate the special men in their life for an honorary CHECT Champion Award. Congratulations to the awesome dads below who were nominated, each of you will receive a special CHECT Champion certificate!

My dad deserves a CHECT Champion Award because he is always supporting me. He attends all my hospital appointments and supports our family. He is kind, caring, and so much fun. I love spending time with him, especially playing football. I think he is the best dad ever!

Daddy is the best! He always makes me laugh when I’m sad, he fixes everything that gets broken and even though he works so hard he always comes home and plays with me and my brother Parker. We love you Daddy to the moon and back again!

Dan is an amazing dad to Casper and Alyssa. He gives the best cuddles, is a Hot Wheels champion and a Lego-building expert. He is always ready to play, make everyone laugh and help with whatever is needed. His love, patience and support mean the world to our family, and we are so lucky to have him. He truly deserves to be celebrated this Father’s Day.
