My Story
7 Aug 2026
This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Because cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia. Right now, 90 children are diagnosed every month, 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.
Frank

“Hi Kaye and Ian Thank you so much for your kind donation, helping in the fight against kids cancer. It is greatly appreciated. I hope you're both well and still travelling. I haven't really got my head around travelling solo so haven't been out much. Went to the Vic national gathering earlier in the year. Otherwise just family camps at Josh's water ski camp on the Hawkesbury River, about an hour away. I have put my name down for the Tocumwal gathering in November. Hope to see you there. Cheers and thanks again. Frank”
