A journey across the world for charity
This monumental challenge is being undertaken by local Rob Goliah, who lives in Barton in Fabis, with his business booklist.com. He is taking an incredible global journey travelling from Melbourne, Derbyshire UK, to Melbourne, Australia, through over 20 countries and completing around 100 once-in-a-lifetime bookitlist experiences, all to raise money for charity. Rob is cycling the entire route.
The charities we’re supporting:
- Mind UK - Promoting mental health awareness, access to services, and crisis support across the UK.
- Look Good Feel Better - Helping people with cancer feel more like themselves again through skincare, beauty, and wellbeing support during treatment.
The journey so far
Rob is 48 days in to the journey already and is currently in Turkey - with highlights including:
- Cycle part of the Tour de France route
- Via Ferrata, cliff walking in Switzerland
- Jet boating in Croatia
- Rafting in Slovenia
- Paragliding in Turkey
With more adventures to come
From Turkey, they’ll continue through: Georgia - Central Asia - India - Nepal - Southeast Asia (Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia) and finally… Australia, just in time for The Ashes and a final beach clean-up before heading home by the end of the year.
