The greatest attribute Cheynne brings to Scleroderma Australia is a compassion for people with Scleroderma, their family and friends to bring about more favorable conditions and improved outcomes. Her passion is to offer support, advocate for others as necessary, and to gain knowledge and raise community awareness of scleroderma.
