My 2014 Marathon for Cerebral Palsy
Story
I'm taking part in the 2014 Melbourne Marathon in support for the Cerebral Palsy Education Centre.
The centre does amazing stuff with some special little people. You should check out what they do http://www.cpec.org.au/
This is my third year raising money for this great cause having completed marathons in 2011 and 2012. My page photo is after the 2012 marathon with my two biggest supporters, my kids, Zu Rui and Cameron. I missed last year due to personal issues however all is now well so I am back and fired up to again to support these brave little battlers. Now I need you to help me raise some desperately need funds.
My motivation to do this is also personal. My friends Colin and Lyndal McVie have a little girl Maeve who has Cerebral Palsy. She is so tough and brave and we love to help her and others like her achieve their best and independence.
Thank you for your support and helping to make a difference.
FYI, a marathon is 42.2 km and will take me about 3 hrs 30 minutes. Short term pain for long term gain.....

CPEC (Cerebral Palsy Education Centre)
CPEC is a unique and specialised service for children and young people with Cerebral Palsy and similar conditions and their families. We are the only Centre of its type in Australia and we are recognised around the world for our success in working with children with CP.
We provide physiotherapy, occupational and speech therapy to children as well as helping them to access essential equipment they need in their daily lives. Every single child who attends CPEC no matter how severe their disability learns to communicate. If you are switched on but can't tell others what you feel or need life can be very frustrating. Learning to communicate is life changing.
It currently costs $34,000 per child per year to receive the much needed “Learning for Life” education programs from CPEC. The Government only funds $7,900 of this so we rely on generous people making donations to help keep us operating.
Our kids are inspiring overcoming obstacles to perform everyday activities, we need your support to help them live as independetly as possible.
