Meet Team Skittles – Roy & Ron 💛
Two Generations, One Mission: Beating Cancer
This September, my son Ron and I — Team Skittles — are setting off on a dusty, unforgettable adventure as part of the Lunchbox Rally 2025, all to raise funds and awareness for the Cancer Council.
But for us, this rally is more than backroads and breakdowns — it’s a journey driven by something much deeper.
Cancer has quietly, and sometimes loudly, touched our lives. We've watched people we care about face the hardest battles, some still fighting, some already missed. As a father, I want to teach my son more than how to drive a car through the outback — I want to show him how to drive hope forward.
This rally is our way of giving back. It's our chance to turn the wheel on something bigger than ourselves. Together, we’re aiming to raise $3,000 for the Cancer Council — funding research, support, and prevention to save more lives and bring comfort to those in the fight.
Here’s where you come in.
Every donation — big or small — is a step closer to a world without cancer. It’s fuel in our tank, literally and figuratively. It’s a message to families in treatment rooms right now: You’re not alone.
Please support Team Skittles however you can. Let’s colour the road with hope, love, and action.
With gratitude,
Roy & Ron

Lunchbox Rally is not a race – it’s a fun adventure. Each night will be spent camping beneath the stars and celebrating the days achievements. It’s an incredible opportunity to see some of Australia’s vast and beautiful countryside and make new friends!
Lunchbox Rally 2026 will see teams set off from Dubbo and return to Dubbo 4 days later! Each night we will be stopping in remote outback locations to enjoy bush hospitality at its finest and be making memories that will last a life time.
Lunch 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 Lunch Box Rally we can fund world-class research that reduces the impact of cancer for everyone.
$59 million over the past 15 years has been raised by Box Rallies to date, supporting ground-breaking projects such as:
These projects wouldn’t be possible without your support.
