My target 125 kms

I'm riding in Pedal the Map for my Mum, Colleen, and to make a difference for people living with dementia!

This November I’m challenging myself to raise funds to support people with dementia.

My contribution will help complete a lap around the world!

Please help me reach my goal by making a donation. It only takes a minute and any amount you can give will go a long way to fund medical and social research and support the vital services, support groups and education programs that Dementia Australia provides to people living with dementia, their families and carers.

Thank you for your support

Day 14 - A Long Ride

Sunday 14th Nov
Today was the longest ride I’ve ever done! 42km. I rode with my friend Jen around Woodford Island, start and finish at Brushgrove Pub. We totally earnt our beer and Schnitzel! 🍻

Day 1 - A Jacaranda Ride

Monday 1st Nov
I took this photo just around the corner from my house… Mum loves the colour of these flowers (she loves mauve and apricot) in bloom - it was even the colour of the bridesmaids dresses when she married Dad! Probably expect plenty of Jacaranda photos - it’s that time of year in Grafton!! #GetOnYaBike #PedalTheMap #jacaranda

Day 1 - Kick Off

Monday 1st Nov
I took a ride around town after work, wondering what helpful things I might be able to share to educate, acknowledge carers, encourage families… processing the journey is somehow still difficult for me, and I struggle to explain how that can be possible. 

It’s only day one, and already I’ve received donations up to $250! With a $500 goal, maybe I need to increase it?

My Mum, Colleen

Tuesday 26th Oct
My profile photo is my Mum, Colleen & I, way back in 2006 and it’s one of my favourite photos of us together. In 2014, she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease. It was a stressful time, a long, scary and drawn out process.

Throughout November, I’ll be on my bike, riding for my Mum and raising money for @dementia_australia in the hope we can make a difference for the 472, 000 Australians living with various forms of dementia. 

It’s not only about fundraising though. It’s about raising awareness and reducing the ongoing stigma associated with this awful disease. 

Maybe you don’t have the resources to donate and that’s absolutely ok - it’s been tough going for many the last 18 months or so! Maybe you’d like to ride for my Mum or someone you love this November? Maybe this is just an opportunity for us to start a discussion about dementia, the impact it has on individuals, family and our community?

If you think you’d like to join Pedal The Map, let me know - maybe we can join forces and create a team. 💜
