A big vote of thanks to all those within the School of Rural Health who supported Rob Evans, son of Gippsland Regional Clinical School Manager Elaine, who has recently completed the Melbourne Ride to Conquer Cancer in support of the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.

Rob originally had the aim of raising $2,000 through various supporters and sponsors but ended up raising $3,050.

Collectively the event raised more than $6.2 million which helps researchers continue their critical cancer research for the benefit of patients across Australia and around the world.

More than 1,600 riders took part in the 200 kilometre ride.
