Support Rio’s Legacy on an incredible challenge that’s more than just a physical journey – it’s a mission to create a better future for children living with life-limiting conditions and their families. From September 18 to October 3, Ryan Fowler will embark on a run/ride challenge from Brisbane to Sydney, with each step representing hope, compassion, and change.

Every step taken during Ryan’s Brisbane to Sydney Challenge ’23 is a step closer to the goal of building Australia’s fourth children’s hospice in Western Sydney.

Why: Building a New Children’s Hospice in Western Sydney

Imagine the challenges faced by families whose children are living with life-limiting conditions. The emotional, physical, and financial burdens can be overwhelming. Currently, Australia has only three hospices to cater for the thousands of children with a life-limiting condition and their families, leaving many without the specialised care they desperately need. At Rio’s Legacy, we believe every family across Australia should have the option to choose hospice care for their children at end of life if needed.

Our goal is to bridge this gap by building Australia’s fourth children’s hospice in Western Sydney. This hospice will not only provide a safe haven for children facing serious health challenges but also offer respite and support to their families, so they can cherish every moment together.
