About our campaign

What is Pain Revolution....

Pain Revolution has a big challenge ahead to give all Australians access to the knowledge, skills and local support they need to prevent and overcome persisting pain.
Persisting pain is pain that affects people's lives for a longer time than needed for tissues to heal, and can last from months to years.
Pain that persists:
  • Affects 1 in 5 Australians , and 1 in 4 rural Australians , right now.

  • Is Australia's most costly and disabling health problem and the most common reason for early retirement from work.

  • Has its greatest impact in regional and rural areas.

  • Is a problem for which we already have workable solutions


The solution starts with whole of community education. Pain Revolution is working hard towards our vision: that EVERY Australian has the skills, knowledge and local resources to prevent and overcome persistent pain.

About the tour....

Think riding a bike through Queensland is tough? It's hard work, but so is turning around persistent pain.

The Pain Revolution Rural Outreach Tour is a one-of-a-kind experience. It is not just a ride. It is a genuine community service; an awareness-raising; fund-raising and community outreach event like nothing else. This year's tour will see 20 passionate cyclists who share our vision, and are committing their time, money and efforts to help enable and empower people challenged by pain and the health professionals who care for them. Unlike most charity rides, each rider is paying all of their own costs - this means that ALL donations to support them go directly to Pain Revolution programs (not to a nice bed and a full belly each night!)




Join our Virtual Support Crew....

As our tour kicks off in Far North Queensland, Pain Revolution is asking YOU to join our Virtual Tour - from September 2 - 8, take on a challenge of moving everyday. It doesn’t have to be 800km! Set a goal - walking, running, cycling, swimming, and get out there everyday, rain, hail or shine! Let your friends and family know why. You could even get them to sponsor you to raise critical funds for Pain Revolution’s life changing work in rural Australia
