On June 28, 2023 the 'Brain Twins' Wayne and Ron began their bike ride across Canada. Starting from the East Coast, their journey will take them across the nation returning to Vancouver Island. Their mission is to raise awareness and funds for the interconnected issues of mental health, homelessness, substance use, and brain injury, which affect millions of Canadians every day.

The "Road to Recovery" campaign will cover over 7,000 kilometers, connecting with communities of all sizes. Along the way, they will share powerful stories of resilience, strength, and hope, collaborate with local organizations, and raise awareness about the complex challenges faced by those grappling with mental health, homelessness, substance use, and brain injuries.
