She tragically lost her late husband Greg Lange to brain cancer in 2010.
And Carrie Bickmore, 43, continued his legacy by starting her own charity, Carrie’s Beanies for Brain Cancer.
The former Project host has now posed in a new campaign for her charity, which she announced during her Gold Logie acceptance speech in 2015.
The radio host flaunted her figure in a light blue singlet, a matching coloured beanie, dark blue sport tights and a jacket.
‘BEANIES ARE BACK!! Orders open now! 1 week only. Beanies delivered in June,’ Carrie wrote.

‘This is a bit exciting! To get your hands on one of our new beanies you must order now and they’ll be delivered in time for winter. This is the only window to order your beanies.’
‘Jump onto www.carriesbeanies4braincancer.com to get yours. (Link in bio) Orders must close 16th March. All the money raised supports the incredible researchers at @braincancercentre. Grab your beanie and help us beat brain cancer.’
Greg tragically passed away in December 2010 at age 35 from a 10-year battle with brain cancer.
Talking to Anh Do on his ABC series Anh’s Brush With Fame in 2018, Carrie revealed Greg’s diagnosis in 2001 shattered her world.
‘It was about a year after we moved to Melbourne. I think I was still 21 or 22 and he was about 25. He had a seizure at home and one thing led to another and they diagnosed him with a brain tumour,’ she tearfully explained.

‘It was just… in your 20s that is just the last thing that you can ever — I didn’t even really know anyone that had cancer, I didn’t know anything about brain cancer, neither did he.
‘It completely threw everything we knew, everything we had planned, everything we thought… it just threw everything on its head.’
Not knowing what the future would hold for them, the couple had their first child together, Oliver in 2005 – with Carrie admitting it was ‘probably the greatest thing we ever did together.’
‘This sounds so weird, but often I’ll see him in the shower, the back of his body, and his frame is just a miniature version of Greg. They’re very, very similar. It was a great thing for both of us, to have him and have that focus,’ she said at the time.
