Chain Reaction Ride

Admin At Sitelead
At Grow Medical we believe that children represent our future.  We believe that service to others builds closer communities. That the lived experience of children now, provides the solutions for our future problems. That’s why we are supporting the first Chain Reaction QLD Women’s Ride in October 2017, by entering a rider and helping to raise funds.

The major beneficiary of this ride will be Hummingbird House, Queensland only children's hospice. Prior to it opening in mid 2016 families of children with life-limiting illness had to travel interstate for symptom management and end of life care.  This centre provides family support and care to help families discover moments, and create memories to last a lifetime.

A secondary beneficiary is Youth Advocacy Centre inc (YAC).  YAC offers free legal services to young people, youth support and family support assistance, particularly those involved in the child protection system, and/or are homeless and/or at risk of homelessness.

Our rider Alison Chambers is a mother of three young children, a midwife, children's nurse, new company director and enjoys riding socially. She will be riding 300km from Byron Bay to Brisbane. Alison and Grow Medical have already raised over $2000.

Alison said “I am looking forward to completing the Chain Reaction womens ride this year as the beneficiaries are close to my heart. I have been involved in children's health care for many years and have seen the impact of inadequate palliative care services for families in Queensland. Grow Medical is a grass roots general practice service dedicated to improving the health of patients, families and communities.  Chain Reaction aligns directly with Grow Medicals core values.”

Help build the strength of our community by supporting these charities. Thank you to those who donated!
