I am raising money to support the children of Hands Across the Water because I believe that all children deserve to build a future full of possibilities, opportunities and dreams - a life of choice, not chance.

Hands Across the Water [Hands] started as a charity in response to the Boxing Day Tsunami. Now we support 350+ children living in 7 homes and projects across Thailand. 

The kids who come to live in a Hands home are there because they have no choice. This is often the result of one of three heartbreaking situations:

  • They have no known family to care for them
  • They have a family member who is known to them, but is unable to care for them
  • They are living in an unsafe environment and have been placed in our care by the police or government

Hands not only provides the life-saving necessities for the kids in our homes, they also support many families in an outreach program to help keep kids out of our homes.

Just as important as filling their bellies with healthy food and providing a safe bed to sleep in, with the support of amazing donors like you, the vision of Hands is to help these kids see the opportunities that lie before them, to see a life of choice.

My hope is that you will make the choice to join me in this experience and help me reach my personal fundraising goal. Please make a donation today to support these children and provide them with a better future. 

Together we can truly make a difference - Donate now!

Tour De Cafe

Saturday 16th Mar
Joel and I joined many other cycling enthusiasts and rode along Beach Road this morning. We enjoyed grabbing a coffee from 'Tour De Cafe ' at our halfway point. Great to be out in the sun on this glorious Melbourne day!

Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Ride

Sunday 28th Jan
Just completed the 59km ride on Saturday around the Great Ocean Road. It was the first time going on the road with altitude changes and riding over 21km. I was proud to complete it in just over 3 hours with an average speed of 19 km/h!

Training has begun!

I have recently joined the local gym and I've started to ride the bike to slowly build up my stamina. 🚴‍♀️
