The prize was awarded to the Satorre Family from Sydney’s Rooty Hill. The family have three children, aged 15, 5 and 2. Last year, their 15 year old son Christopher was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in August and underwent treatment at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead.

Dubai Tourism Regional Sales Manager Jodie Collins said: “We’re so pleased to be involved to send this family for six nights to Dubai for a wonderful holiday staying at the Burj Al Arab. It’s an amazing destination and a perfect family holiday.”

2UE Content Director Clinton Maynard said: “Christopher has just finished his treatment so a family holiday will be such a wonderful gift at the end of this difficult journey. We are so thrilled to see this prize go to such a deserving family and we’d like to thank Dubai Tourism and the Burj Al Arab for their generous prize donation.”
