Dr Feel Good
Dr Sally Cockburn, known in the media also as Dr Feelgood is Australia's leading health communicator. She is a graduate of Monash University Medical School and has nearly twenty years clinical experience as a medical practitioner. She also has over ten years as a media presenter on TV , radio and in print.

As a doctor she has extensive clinical and teaching experience. She worked in the public hospital sector for 6 years, in surgery and emergency before focussing on a speciality general practice career.

An avid public speaker and writer, Sally’s media career began in 1990 when one of her patients asked her whether she might be part of a new radio show she was producing. Because of medical board recommendations she was not able to use her real name and so “Dr Feelgood” was born ! Her weekly health segment on the phenomenally successful 3AW breakfast program ,Lawyers Guns and Money continued for 2 years until, believe it or not, another patient suggested an opportunity for her own show, on another radio network!

Tania Lacy
Tania Lacy is one of Australia's best-known artists, lauded for her wicked wit, boots 'n' all verve and salty sketches. She has hosted several Australian television music & youth programs (performing all the sketch comedy) and was a regular on national shows such as The Today Show, Totally Full Frontal and A Current Affair. Several of Lacy's comedic characters, such as 'Carlos the Latin Lover' and 'Annette the Librarian' are part of the Australian lexicon.

Tania has now chosen Marie Stopes International Australia (MSIA) as her preferred charity to promote. "I wanted to find a charity that empowers women to make informed decisions about their own lives, MSIA does this and I'm proud to be spokesperson for them".
