Sids and Kids Grand Challenge

Aged Care Connect is a proud supporter of this extremely worthwhile cause.

Grandparents who have experienced the death of a grandchild and their compassionate others are working together on a grand adventure to help SIDS and Kids Victoria provide bereavement support to others who have experienced the sudden and unexpected death of a grandchild from 20 weeks gestation through to 6 years of age, regardless of the cause of death.

Joining these Grandparents could be one of the most rewarding things you’ve ever done and a completely new way to travel.

The Grand Adventure

Heading off in teams of two across South East Asia, you'll enjoy a variety of experiences set for you each day that will involve you interacting with the local culture and people, learning about the places you’ll visit, and most of all experiencing the journey of a lifetime!

Learn more about the world on this amazing personal journey and stimulating challenge.

Where will the Challenge take you?

Travel across three international borders via Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. You’ll see many well known and beautiful places and at other times venture right off the
beaten track in to local communities where you can meet Grandparents from other cultures. Highlights include Ho Chi Minh city, the Mekong delta, a trip up the Mekong
river, the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh, the ancient temple city of Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Bangkok and a stunning finish line on the beaches of Southern Thailand.

How does it work?

Each morning you’ll receive instructions from your intrepid leader with clues to the day’s challenge. Sometimes the challenge will take place within one city or area, at other times it will involve you moving between countries.

Local transport will be utilized throughout the experience and will provide a charming break from what you’re used to! You’ll also have rest days and time off in each major location to look around and relax so you’re not focused on the challenge all the time and can enjoy your surroundings!

What will you need to bring?

Each team needs to bring a digital camera, a mobile phone (we’ll supply local SIM cards) and a huge sense of fun and adventure.

The challenges are staffed by Intrepid leaders who accompany you through the trip to ensure you don’t go too far in the wrong direction. The challenge is not physical and challenges are intended to favour different abilities so everyone has a ball! The challenges you’ll face will vary in their nature and require a mix of skills, determination, common sense and good luck....

Sids and Kids will Thank You

Your first goal is to assist SIDS and Kids by fund-raising $5,500, with plenty of help and guidance from the staff at Memorable Challenges. Once you've reached your goal, you’ll also have raised awareness of such a fantastic organisation that relies on the generosity of the community in order to deliver its services. The fundraising aspect is half the fun and easier than you think!
