This is worth the read and is a great help for all of us as we continue to try and understand how to keep safe during this time. Ensuring we keep our social distancing, hand washing and of course limiting our contact with others in our community we can get through this time and look forward to getting back to our usual routines.  WMS Covid-19 recommendations

In light of the current situation we are all living in here are some tips for hand washing and general care for all of us to follow. Please take care when out and about and where possible stay at home and ensure you are keeping yourselves busy, be that chatting with friends on the phone, learning something new, studying or ensuring that you keep up your regular exercises. We are all looking forward to getting back to a normal state when we can resume clinic activities, power chair football and of course catching up in person. Stay Safe.

Muscle Up Charity Fight Night 6 – “The Real Code War” There’s been plenty of talk lately about which football code is best. In Canberra, it’s league versus union, Raiders versus Brumbies. The Muscle Up Charity Fight Night is going to settle this once and for all when Terry Campese steps into the ring to take on Ben Alexander. We will sort out this code war once and for all, said Bill Baker, President of Capital Region Muscular Dystrophy which is holding Muscle Up Charity Fight Night 6 at the Hellenic Club, Woden on Saturday 8 August. Terry Campese, Canberra Raiders Captain, State of Origin, Kangaroos, 139 games for the Raiders, and Ben Alexander, 154 games for the Brumbies, 72 Wallaby Caps will both make their boxing debut when they contest the Real Code War. Alexander has stayed fit since retiring from Rugby and is sporting a slimline 100kg frame these days not unlike when he made his start with Uni-Norths Colts. He’s going to employ his fitness to outlast Campese. “Campo is rugby league and Queanbeyan tough and I’m just a soft North Shore private school boy who played rugby union so he will definitely start favourite” said Alexander. Campese on the other hand describes Alexander as being intelligent, enigmatic and more strategic in his approach, “not unlike scrum rules in Union.” The Muscle Up Charity Fight Night is the major fund raiser for Capital Region Muscular Dystrophy. This year we have teamed with Terry Campese and his Foundation to stage our biggest event yet.

In February the Pedal 4 Pierce team rode from Canberra to Murrumbateman to deliver a new cough assist machine to young Pierce! The team regularly ride in races across New South Wales and the ACT but on mountain bikes….but for this special trip they swapped the fat tyres for skinny road tyres and enjoyed a ride in country followed by morning tea and then Pierce demonstrating how the machine works. It is great to see how money raised is helping those in our community.
