My Story

5 Oct 2024

This Last year I cycled 528 kms and raised $3315,it was whilst cycling that distance my mind looked to how far I would cycle in 2024 for this charity and I realised that I should cycle the distance that separates

Me from my children, a distance i have tried to parent from since surviving a stroke 6 years ago it’s simply a distance that i have personally had to overcome to remain close to my children. Because being away from them is the most painful experience of my life so far I. The month of October i shall cycle the distance that separates me from my children because I know any parent would walkaround the earth to protect their child so in the spirit of those parents caring for their children fighting cancer I choose to cycle the distance to my babies. And in doing that raise funds to help Other little children live long and wonderful lives and I ask you to help me do this by donating $8.53 if i can get 853 people to each donate 8.53 my goal is a simple one and i will easily exceed my target

Here's my personal impact over 2 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.
