Russell Skett

I’m on a mission to defeat cancer.

Cancer doesn’t just affect one person, it shakes up families, friends and communities.  I have lived through this situation, with my wife’s breast cancer diagnosis in 2020. This year, I will be taking a stand against it. 

On Saturday 4 & Sunday 5 October 2025, I’m joining a community of passionate riders to cycle 200km to raise vital funds for cancer research at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research.

Every dollar pushes us closer to breakthroughs at the Perkins where brilliant researchers work tirelessly to find life-saving answers for some of the toughest cancers. But they also need our help to ensure their vital progress continues– no matter what.

 100% of the funds we raise will go back to the Perkins giving cancer researchers the support to continue their life-saving work so that our loved ones can live longer, healthier lives.

The Ride is more than just a test of endurance—it’s about unity. I'll ride alongside an incredible group of people who believe, as I do, that cancer can be conquered. Your support can turn this belief into reality.

Will you help me to reach this goal?

Thankyou for supporting my fundraising efforts. Your generosity could be the key to saving our loved ones in the future.
