My Story
This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Together, we can save little lives.
Thanks for your support.
UPDATE 10 OCTOBER: Unfortunately while out riding my bike, I was hit by a car. So no more cycling for me this month! Luckily I have friends who are happy to 'donate' their rides, so I'll add them. Special thanks to Ed Birt who's sharing 630 clicks and absolutely meeting that target of mine!
