My Story

29 Sep 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.

This is a very special ride this year. I have lost three close friends this year to cancer. It is an absolute tragedy when children die and I'm determined to turn this around. If you can donate please help - every little bit will help and I will be so grateful for your support.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.
