My Story

21 Sep 2026

This October, Dad and I are joining the RCMC Team to take part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Over the last few years we have welcomed a lot of children into our family and we decided it was time to put our hands up (and on our handlebars) to do our small part.

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 we are 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 our 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.
