Hey, I'm Joseph Smith 26yrs old and through my life I've lost friends to suicide, stopped friends committing suicide and been on the brink of it myself. I've decided to do something about it and so at the end of February 2020 I'm cycling from Auckland to Wellington raising funds for the Gumboot Friday fund to ensure our young people who need help can get it when they need it because without this vital help our young peoples troubles can get to bad and tragedy strikes. Join me helping our country combat rising suicide rates as I ride Auckland to Wellington proving that any challenge in life is possible to conquer no matter how hard it gets.
