My Story

31 Oct 2026

As a 13 year cancer survivor myself, I know Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

This October 2026 is the 12th year I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

I started to help my own recovery and to help ensure kids can live a cancer free life.

I even roped my father into the cause. At 85 he is riding for the 10th time. He always rides further and raises more funds than me. What a role model.

Right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 600 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week. That’s just not acceptable

So dad and I are 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 our challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve. Or seek out the Tol Tol Turtle team and donate to my dad Chris Finley. Surprise him with donations from people he doesn’t even know!

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.
