Ruby Angel Thomson

Ruby Angel Thomson

Since 2010 the beautiful Ruby Angel has been gone from our lives. She is missed everyday and by many, and we all feel robbed that we didn't get to see her grow up and live her life. I ride for Ruby and her family and friends, and hope that raising money can help fight kids cancer and to one day beat it completely.

My Story

5 Oct 2024

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.
