SPONSORSHIP PROPOSAL
Diabetes Tasmania ~ PolliePedal’15
Now in its tenth year, Diabetes Tasmania’s PolliePedal is a unique 3-day road cycling event designed for cyclists seeking a challenging ride through the beautiful Tasmanian landscape. More importantly, the event helps raise awareness of diabetes in local communities, raises funds to support people living with diabetes and helps Diabetes Tasmania to reduce the impact of diabetes.
10th Anniversary RideIn 2015 we will be celebrating the 10th Anniversary of PolliePedal in Tasmania and to commemorate
the occasion we are inviting all past riders and sponsors to return and help us celebrate this
momentous achievement. In 2015 we hope to raise more than $50,000 to support our range of
programs across the state.
PolliePedal’15 will start at the Hobart Airport Hotel and head to Richmond, one of Tasmania’s most
popular destinations, for an official launch at St John’s Primary School. We will then head to New
Norfolk, cycling around the beautiful Derwent River and heading back to the iconic Wrest Point Casino
for our overnight stay, where we will enjoy the Anniversary Dinner. The following morning we will head
out of the city to the base of Mt Wellington, through the picturesque rolling hills of the Huon Valley
ending up with a Community Barbeque at Snug on the de’Entrecasteaux Channel. Day three will see
riders tackling the Old Channel Highway through Taroona. We will visit the first licensed distillery in
Tasmania, Lark Distillery which has been named 'Australian Distiller of the Year' & 'Best Australian
Whisky' for a sample of their best whisky. We will then head over the Tasman Bridge, around the
curved shoreline of Bellerive and Howrah Beaches finishing up with a swim at Seven Mile Beach and
lunch at the Wyndham Vacation Resort.
Since the inaugural ride in February 2006, Diabetes Tasmania has worked in collaboration with Guy
Barnett MP and his staff to stage PolliePedal. His support has been invaluable and has helped to
make the event such a success, as well as attracting high profile personalities including : The Hon
Tony Abbott; The Hon Greg Hall MLC (annually since 2006); The Hon Vanessa Goodwin MLC; and
many local Mayors, Aldermen and Councillors from across Tasmania.
PolliePedal’15
Several times throughout the event, the participants and support crew will make scheduled stops to address media, schools, aged care facilities, local communities and local attractions.
Many of the PolliePedal participants return year after year because of the quality experience both in relation to the staging of the event, and the camaraderie between the participants who undertake this adventure together.
Diabetes Tasmania Diabetes Tasmania, a member of Diabetes Australia, is a not for profit organisation whose key focus
is to reduce the impact of diabetes and to empower our community to better health.
Diabetes has become one of the most significant health issues facing our community. In Tasmania over
26,500 people diagnosed with diabetes and registered on the National Diabetes Services Scheme (NDSS).
In addition, there are:
10,000 living with the disease but undiagnosed
45,000 at high risk of developing diabetes
175 new Tasmanian registrants on the NDSS every month
6 Tasmanians per day developing diabetes
All types of diabetes are serious and can lead to complications if not well managed:
Diabetes is the leading cause of preventable blindness in adults
Diabetes retinopathy is found in 15% of people with diabetes
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in people with diabetes with heart attacks and
strokes up to four times more likely in people with diabetes
Diabetes is the leading cause of non-traumatic leg amputation
Diabetes Tasmania is committed to reducing the impact of diabetes. We achieve this by facilitating
effective diabetes management, providing prevention programmes and initiatives, supporting
advocacy and funding important diabetes research. We represent the needs of all Tasmanians
affected by diabetes – from those diagnosed, their health professionals, family members and
colleagues, and wider community.
We warmly invite you to sponsor our 2015, 10th Anniversary of PolliePedal in Tasmania.
