My Story

8 Oct 2024

For the month of October, I am once again taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Being a grandparent is certainly different to being a parent. This year I have four grandchildren. Raising money for this cause now means a whole lot more to me.

I ride my bike for fitness and the enjoyment of getting out into the fresh air. I hope the effort I make to raise much needed funds from this event allows our little ones to also one day enjoy riding a bike in the fresh air too.

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.
