4 Cyclists from Sydney to Ride 800km to Raise money for the Children’s Hospital at Westmead!

Matthew Barton, Jared Goldthorpe, Omar Kowaider and Muhmmad Ismail will be covering an approximate distance of 800km in Alberta Canada over 10 days in July!

“We’re hoping to raise $5,000 for the hospital which is a realistic goal,” says Matthew Barton, “All donations will be accepted through “www.everydayhero.com.au”

The 4 Everyday Heroes will cycling from Vancouver to Jasper and setup camp thoughout national parks during their trip.

The trip was organised and funded themselves and the foursome’s biggest concern is not navigating safely over 800km, but bear attacks! They have bear spray to protect them (good luck mates).

“The Children’s Hospital at Westmead do such a phenomenal job in looking after sick children and we just wanted to give back to the hospital,” says Barton, who not only tutors medicine students at the University of Western Sydney, but also treats patients with sleeping disorders at Liverpool Hospital, while working a regular job.

If you wish to make a tax deductable donation to this group of heroes, go to www.everyday hero.com.au, the website will also provide an update on all funds donated and update their journey details.
