What is Daniher’s Drive?

Daniher’s Drive is our famous annual road trip. The trip aims to raise awareness and vital funds to fight motor neurone disease (MND). 

This is a 4-day road trip unlike any other. Join 250 like-minded people to visit some of Australia's greatest towns. Take part in fun events and meet new people, many of whom have been affected by MND.  

In 2024, Daniher’s Drive will take place from 10 to 13 October. It will travel through Bendigo, Warrnambool and Lorne. Registrations are now open. So, grab your friends and family, form a team, and join us for Daniher’s Drive 2024.
