We are proud to volunteer our time in support of the
following organisations and causes:
Patron - Ride to Cure Diabetes
Thousands of Australian children and adults live every
day with the daily challenges of diabetes and the looming
threat of its devastating complications. There are 140,000
people with type 1 diabetes in Australia.
In the 3 years since its inception, the Ride to Cure
Diabetes has raised in excess of $1,000,000 for research
into type 1, or juvenile, diabetes.

Trustee of the Amy Gillett Foundation

The Amy Gillett Foundation was born out of the tragic
accident that occurred in Germany in July 2005, claiming
the life of champion cyclist, Amy Gillett, and seriously
injuring five of her team mates from the Australian
Women’s Cycling Team.
The Amy Gillett Foundation will play an important role
in promoting safe cycling through influencing the social
behaviour of motorists and cyclists, legislative change
and education.
The core foundation objectives are:
- Increase the road safety of cyclists by changing
the way in which
cyclists and motorists interact
- Act if necessary as a safety net in the rehabilitation
of Amy’s team
mates
- Fund the initial phase of the European cycling careers
of young
female Australian cyclists - the next generation of
Amy Gilletts.
