A partnership that will make us all ‘Go Do Good’!

We’re pleased to announce our new partnership with Go Do Good, an Australian business specialising in unique Australian-designed jewellery, gifts, and Christmas decorations.

It was only by chance that we stumbled across the ‘Hope Dandelion’ range. And we’re so glad we did! The pendent necklace and earrings are not only beautiful and elegant, but they also fit perfectly with our brand and what we stand for as an organisation.

So, to help celebrate our 30^th Anniversary, we’re providing you with a code, APF30HOPE, that can be used when purchasing any piece from the ‘Hope Dandelion’ range, directly from the Go Do Good website. A portion of the sale will go directly to APF to help fund critical research into the screening, diagnosis, and treatment of pituitary conditions, as well as helping us to raise much-needed awareness about these conditions. Simply click on the link below to make your purchase.

Now let’s ‘Go Do Good’!
