My Story

10 Oct 2023

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 600 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.

“Hi Joan, thank you so much for supporting kids cancer research. Your donation goes to a great cause and encourages me to get out each day and do the bike kilometres. I hope all the real estate juggling is proceeding smoothly (and that the chooks are settling into the Hilton). I hope Gippsland is on your schedule for when you hit the road. The red rocket kayak awaits you! Cheers. Sally”

“Ciao Paolo. HUGE thanks to you for again supporting my fundraising. My 20kms each day is a poor effort compared to the approximately 60km each day we rode on the Via Francigena !! Thanks so much for meeting with Celia and Damian. They loved meeting you and were grateful for your guidance (and lunch)! They were very impressed with your fitness. Keep fit and well. Sally x”
