Our Story …
We are really happy to announce that we're taking part in Mystery Box Rally in 2025!!
We will be participating in honour of our late Granny, Anne. Ben and Dylan (myself) are number 1 and 2 of Granny's 8 grandchildren. Granny was the rock of our family, the butt of every joke and solution to every problem. She loved nothing more than being a Wife to John. Mother to Mark, Steve and Kath. Granny to Ben, Dylan, Haylee, Isaac, Nick, Beau, Noah and Dane. And Great Granny to Loghan, Scarlett and Billie.
Granny loved to travel Australia, seeing as much as of what it has to offer as anyone you will meet and it is with great pride that we will be taking her prized Toyota Corolla for a spin looping from and back around to one of her favourite places, Broken Hill.
Mystery Box Rally is one of the largest community lead fundraising events for Cancer Council in Australia having raised over $8 million in the last 12 years. This rally will have us driving a car that is 25 years or older along outback roads.
We will do approximately 2,500kms in 5 days. We set off from Broken Hill & return to Broken Hill 5 days later, each day in between is a mystery, we have no idea where we will be headed until just before departure the next morning.
In order for us to participate we need to raise $4,000 and every dollar raised goes to Cancer Council. We would very much appreciate it if you could donate to the cause & help us on our journey!
Here's what I'm doing …
Teams will drive their own 25+ year old cars along a mystery route in this unique 5-day challenge, all in the name of cancer research. The route is a loop starting and finishing at the same location, but all the other details are kept under wraps, only given to the teams each morning.
The rally is not a race – it’s a fun, colourful, unpredictable adventure with participants travelling at their own pace in smaller groups. Vehicles often break down but “we never leave anyone behind” and each night is spent camping beneath the stars and celebrating the day’s achievements. It all adds up to an incredible opportunity to see Australia’s vast and beautiful countryside and make lifelong friends, many brought together after experiencing cancer themselves or seeing cancer impact family and friends.
Since it’s inception the rally has been the largest fundraiser for the Cancer Council nationally.

The Impact, Outcomes & Charity
Mystery Box Rally is a dedicated fundraising event for cancer research with funds going to Cancer Council.
Cancer Council is one of the largest non-government funders of cancer research in Australia. We conduct and fund research studies across all cancers and all stages of the cancer journey.
Thanks to the community funds raised such as Mystery Box Rally we can fund world-class research that reduces the impact of cancer for everyone.
$50 million over the past 15 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:
- A research study to develop a vaccine that protects against lymphoma cancers.
- A research trial to standardise international guidelines on melanoma removal.
- A research grant to revolutionise the treatment of pancreatic cancer.
These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
