Start your cars, rev your engines and get ready for ten action packed days travelling via out of the way places to the ultimate destination of Mount Panorama and the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000!!
Tick off two bucket list experiences by joining in the fun of the 2016 Variety Bash, beginning in Warwick and travelling via dirt roads, through outback towns making our way to the finish line – the V8 Supercar mecca of Bathurst in time for Mount Panorama to come alive with the race that stops a nation.
Along the way we will witness many special presentations, visit excited kids at many schools and raise funds for the children and families who rely on Variety – the Children’s Charity for assistance.
I am involved with the Variety Bash this year, cheering on the cars and greeting them when they roll in to Bathurst in time to watch me take to the infamous mountain. But don't worry that you cant More importantly, I will be joining in the fundraising fun to raise much needed money for children like Sophie.
Sophie from North Lakes in Queensland is a wonderful and loving nine year old girl suffering with quadriplegia, a type of cerebral palsy. Sophie needs our help now.
Sophie has a sharp mind and a sunny personality, but this little girl is suffering terribly because her legs disengage from her hips. To stop this, doctors break both her thigh bones and reset them with steel plates and long metal screws every two years as she grows. Confined to a wheelchair right now, we hope Sophie will one day be able to sit and stand by herself.
But for now, the pain is so unbearable that a small computer has been inserted into Sophie’s stomach to inject pain relieving drugs into her spine every day.
Sophie needs our help now to help provide intensive therapy to make sure the operations succeed, and to relieve her pain as much as possible.
Children's charity, Variety, will make arrangements for Sophie's therapy, but money is needed to pay for it. I have decided to donate some of what is needed. Will you join me and donate too?
