I’m riding this October to fund critical therapy, vital equipment, connection and moments of joy for over 1,600 Brainwave children living with brain disorders across Australia.

This was Ethan’s wonderful idea, and I (Ben) am riding alongside him! He’s passionate about helping others and is committed to riding over 200kms in October  

On average, 10 children a day in Australia are diagnosed with a brain illness or injury - life-changing conditions like epilepsy, stroke, cerebral palsy, brain injuries and rare neurological disorders. That’s more than 3,000 families, every year, suddenly navigating fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming challenges. Brainwave Australia is the only national charity dedicated to walking alongside these families.

This October, I’m riding to raise funds for critical therapy, vital equipment, hospital support, and moments of joy for over 1,600 children supported by Brainwave. From hospital packs and mobility aids to family camps and connection-focused support, Brainwave help families feel less alone and more equipped to face what lies ahead.

Your donation is more than a number - it provides tangible support for a family navigating a child's brain disorder. It helps provide therapy, essential equipment, and gices access to programs that bring hope and connection when it’s needed most. Please support my ride and let's stand with these families. Together, we ride.
