This support extends to our research partners in Victoria who are currently doing it tough amidst the COVID restrictions.

01.01.2022 The Tour de Cure is a gruelling annual ride through some of Australia’s most spectacular and rugged countryside to raise money for cancer research. Channel 7’s cameras have been rolling on the ride for the past 10 years capturing the unique scenery and drama. And from that vast library, Sunrise’s Mark Beretta has pulled together the best stories, the most beautiful sections, and captured all the pain and jubiliation of this incredible fundraising feat. THE CYCLE - The Tour d...e Cure Story goes back to how three friends had the idea of jumping on their bikes to ride from Brisbane to Sydney to help those battling cancer. 14 years, and tens of thousands of kilometres later, the Tour de Cure has raised over $60-million, funded over 502 research, support and prevention projects, that have led to 29 major international breakthroughs in cancer treatment. From Adelaide right around the Australian east coast to Cape Tribulation, inland over the Snowy Mountains, and across Tasmania, in rail, hail and shine, you will see a unique view of this beautiful country. The stories of riders and their families are emotional. The Tour finishes are exhilarating. This is a beautifully uplifting story at a time when the nation really needs it. Broadcast times: Saturday 29th August - 1.00pm ADELAIDE Sunday 6th September - 1.00pm SYD, MELB, BRIS and other markets

01.01.2022 The Tour de Cure Spring Lunch will take place at the Hyatt Regency Sydney on the 26 November 2020. If you would like to donate a prize to help raise vital funds for cancer research, please email [email protected].
