Royal Far West’s Ride for Country Kids’ grand finale is being held from 2pm on Tuesday May 20 at Victoria Park, Forbes. All are welcome to meet the riders after they completed their 400km three-day ride! And, to donate, to support the riders.
The Ride will take 64 cyclists on a journey - starting in Parkes, and travelling through Manildra, Molong, Trundle, and Eugowra, before finishing in Forbes.
These towns hold a special place in Royal Far West’s history and future, supported by passionate people, local branches, and community hubs like the op-shops in Forbes and Trundle.
The ride aims to raise $500,000 to fund vital developmental and mental health services for country children and their families.
Royal Far West is currently working with these schools across the Central and Far West NSW region: Eugowra Community Children's Centre (childcare and preschool), Eugowra School, Forbes Public School, Holy Family Parkes, Manilda Public School, Middleton Public School, Molong Public School, St Joseph’s School, St Patrick’s School, St Laurence’s School, Trundle Catholic School and Trundle Central School.
To donate
Each year, we head out on a three-day ride across regional NSW to help raise awareness and vital funds to give country kids the developmental and mental health services they need, but otherwise cannot access.
