Become a Climate Campaigner!

Our Cavalcaders will be sporting new T-Shirts for their epic journey. You can become a climate campaigner by riding or walking around your neighbourhood or favorite location and let us know your distance travelled each week by dropping us an email or a text to the contact details below. (probably not to Neville though, he’ll be in the saddle somewhere across Australia!)

We’ll add your distances to our ‘kilometres travelled’ totals to show our politicians the breadth of support in the community.

If you’d like a Cavalcade T-Shirt to join in on the action, please contact us on the details below.  A piece of history for just $30 each.
