Front seat, tunes on, snacks at the ready, co-pilot sat beside you. The drive has a unique power, to foster connection, conversations and an ease with the day.
You might be worried about that mate who’s going through a tough time, craving a conversation with your teenager where they’ll actually respond and tell you what’s really going on, or maybe you need to let off some steam, window down, best friend beside you, rallying the road to rise up to meet you. The car, and the trip taken along the road together can be an opportunity to check in, open up, say nothing, or everything, listen or be heard.
Time spent with people we care about, who make us feel good, is time very well spent. The World Health Organisation backs it: real connection lowers the risk of anxiety, depression, dementia, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. So, we’re building that connection the way we know best, side-by-side, behind the wheel.
We know driving more will have you living more. The Refuel also allows you to do more for the people and issues you really care about. There is the opportunity to turn your Refuel into a force for good, register your drive, and share your love of connection and causes you care about with your community, as a personal fundraiser. Because your love of driving and that road trip with your crew is going to be great for you, you can also do great for others by encouraging people to get behind your love of driving and connecting by donating to your fundraising efforts.
Let’s be honest running a marathon is hard, albeit impressive, and baking cakes and growing moustache is important too, but for you, for you, it’s a love of all things cars and road tripping that you're known for, so turn your superpower into a force for good and raise some money to fuel positive change around you.
Mental health, suicide prevention, heart disease, stroke, dementia, all critical health issues that are positively impacted by the strength of social connection, so let’s harness the love of cars and driving together, to drive significant funds for these important issues.
All the funds we raise support the fights that keep you in the driver’s seat.
