Going the distance to change the lives of country kids!
In a fit of madness, I've signed up to cycle 450kms over 3 days in outback NSW, from Bourke to Narromine, on May 15 2025, to raise vital money for country children's mental health, developmental and behavioural services.I have long been a keen rider, edging ever closer to what can only be described as a middle-aged man in lycra, however to date the furthest I've done in a single ride is about 130km. Day one of this ride is 162km, day two 135km, and day three 160km - this is going to chafe. If it's not a midlife crisis then it will certainly do until one shows up, but at least it's cheaper than a Porsche.
I am a psychiatrist living in the Adelaide Hills, and I work for the SA Rural and Remote Mental Health Service. I deal with the challenges of mental health provision to rural and remote areas on a daily basis, so the cause is something I can really get behind. Currently, children in regional and remote Australia are waiting up to six years to see a specialist or being told there are no services at all.
I’m riding to help raise $750,000 for country kids who are struggling with developmental and mental health needs, to get them access to the critical assessments, services and support they need.
You can help by making a donation via this page and by helping to spread the word by sharing my page. Every dollar of your donation – no matter how large or small - adds up to truly make a difference for country kids. Your gift will be directly support vulnerable country kids by connecting them to the vital healthcare services and support they urgently need.
Thanks so much for your time and, hopefully, some of your cash! It's for a great cause and it really means a lot.
