My Story

28 Jul 2025

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 700 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.

Paul

“Third day and 43+ km. 1008 for three days. It is hard work but I think of all those Children who may never reach Adulthood to enjoy cycling. They have a hard road to get there unless we help. Many thanks.”

“Thank you to the people at a meeting who clubbed together to help me reach my fund target. Small amounts may not seem like much but the Children get the benefit of those small amounts. Great work on the last day of October.”

“Thanks, Robyn. As an ardent cyclist you know how hard this is but I will persevere. I know that Children's Cancer needs kicking to the sidelines. If we can get results, it helps the whole of humanity. Regards Paul.”
