Boxing great Jeff Horn and footy legend Sam Thaiday gave a big thumbs up to the My health for life program today at the iconic Brisbane Markets annual mango auction.

The pair were on hand to support the charity event which involves auctioning the first tray of Queensland mangoes for the season. The winning bid raised $29,000 for the joint recipient’s Diabetes Queensland and Life Education.

As Horn and Thaiday talked to the recipients, they were pleased to hear how programs like My health for life are supporting Queenslanders who want to get their health back on track.
