This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

I don't share this very often, but when my daughter was 6, an ultrasound found a 6 cm cancerous tumour in her abdomen. Luckily, it was caught just in time and no chemo was required but she had to have major surgery to remove the tumour, which still brings up traumatic memories for her and our family. My daughter has just turned 16 but every year we head back to the hospital for scans and check-ups, with no end in sight. Our daughter was extremely lucky and blessed but not all kids with cancer have such a good outcome.

Right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – with over 700 children diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 dying 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. Every little bit helps.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.
