Riding in red against DV
THE Red Ride Against Domestic Violence is back, and this year it promises to be a powerful event in the fight against domestic violence.
Set to take place on May 17, this annual charity ride aims to raise both funds and awareness to support local organisations in the Moreton Bay region that provide essential services for those affected by domestic violence.
Every dollar raised contributes directly to vital support and awareness campaigns in the community.
The event kicks off at 8:30am from the Caboolture Showgrounds, where participants will embark on a scenic motorcycle ride through Moreton Bay.
Riders will travel along Morayfi eld Road, cross the Ted Smout Bridge at Clontarf, and continue through the picturesque region, all while sporting red to show their support for the cause.
The motorbikes are expected to return to the showgrounds around 12:00pm.
But it’s not just about the ride. The Caboolture Showgrounds will host a Family Fun Day from 11:00am onwards, off ering something for everyone.
Enjoy live music by the Plumbdogs Band, watch the kids have a blast on the rock-climbing wall, super slide, face painting, balloon twisting, and giant Jenga.
Car enthusiasts can explore a stunning Car Show, while foodies can enjoy a variety of food trucks and market stalls.
In addition, the Domestic Violence Prevention Council will host information sessions, providing resources for those wanting to learn more about how they can help prevent domestic violence in their communities.
