From the Toowoomba Chronicle
Mr Collins began his 160,000 km expedition from a relatives farm in Goulburn, New South Wales.
He will cycle, for the most part on his own, around Australia to raise money and awareness for Oxfam Australia’s indigenous programs and their close the gap campaign.
It was after speaking to his cousin and doing some research that Mr Collins decided to try and help indigenous Australians.
“I found out just how real poverty is in Australia,” Mr Collins said.
