Cas was always one to help others. From her role as a midwife, her involvement in the local community to her regular support of the Cancer Council Australia / Cancer Council NSW.

She loved the Daffodil Dip.
The Daffodil Dip a community fundraising challenge where participants plunge into cold winter water - such as the ocean, a lake, a river, or a cold bath - to raise money and awareness for the 1 in 2 people who will develop cancer by age 85.

On Saturday August 22nd Cas’s husband Paul will be joined by her midwifery colleagues and family to do a beach walk and Daffodil Dip off the Coffs Harbour jetty in her honour and memory.

If you would like to help you can sponsor Paul in his first Daffodil Dip by visiting : https://www.daffodilday.com.au/fundraisers/paulcampbell/daffodil-day-dip-2026

Yesterday the NSW Opposition lodged amendments to dilute the Minn’s Government (Good Character at Sentencing) Bill 2026 Reforms which would see the “good character” references often put forward when a killer is sentenced, removed.

Homicide Victims' Support Group (Aust) Ltd (HVSG) have long lobbied for this important reform which is designed to strengthen the protection of victims and see appropriate penalties for the perpetrator.

The Opposition want this limited to sexual offences only, meaning that in the instance of a homicide, the killer would still be able to place advocates on the stand to provide testimonials of support for the killer’s “good character”. And allow the courts the discretion to consider this testimony a mitigating factor when sentencing.

As Martha Jabour, CEO of HVSG said : "Homicide leaves families with a life sentence of grief. The justice system must not dilute accountability through subjective praise of the perpetrator.

When courts give weight to personal endorsements they risk sidelining the voices that matter most – those of the victims."

The Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Amendment (Good Character at Sentencing) Bill 2026 must be passed with no amendments.
