My Story

7 Jan 2026

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. As you may be aware 11 years ago our family lost our son Hamish to Medulloblastoma, a form of brain tumor. Hamish was only 8 years old and had battled cancer since he was 3 1/2.

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.

This is my 7th year riding in memory of Hamish.

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.
