2023 - Puka Up Cycle for Change

I'm Penny Duffell and I'm in my 3rd year supporting the PukaUp’s Cycle for Change 2023.

As part of PukaUp’s Cycle for Change 2023 event, I’m pledging to ride 331.4kms for the 3314 people who died by suicide in 2021. (2022 stats not released).

PukaUp are a cause driven organisation who exist to end suicide. The recent launch of their online course Foundations of Wellbeing means that every Australian can learn the knowledge and tools needed to proactively manage their individual mental health, before reaching crisis point.

This cause means a lot to me because mental health challenges are in my family, touch a number of dear friends and colleagues. If our riding and fund-raising helps share the message to end suicide, even for 1 person, then we are winning the battle.

For every $250 I raise, I unlock one spot in the course which, I can then gift to anyone in my community. The more we raise together, the more people’s lives we can positively impact.

Thank you kindly for your support. You know how much it means to me.
