My Story

13 Sep 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.

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.

    20 Oct 2026

    Hi there family and friends. As you know I am currently participating for the ninth year in this amazing fund raising opportunity to financially assist kids suffering from cancer.

    For those of you who have not as yet made a donation in this years event, please note that any money coming in tomorrow (Wed 21st) will be doubled !!!

    In case you are wondering… I am thoroughly enjoying the sail from Airlie Beach to Yeppoon with our daughter Jane and husband Ross on their yacht Blue Pearl .

    So thank you again to those of who have, and those of you who will (tomorrow?) make a donation. Cheers for now😆😆
