2022- Australia Day Awards - Community Citizen of the Year Award - Alanagh Godderidge - City of Joondalup2021 - Australia Day Awards - Active Citizenship Award - Cycling Without Age Sorrento - City of JoondalupOur Vision is forA LOCAL COMMUNITY THAT IS STRONG & VIBRANT, WHERE EVERYONE FEELS INCLUDED.Our Mission is thatWE DELIVER INNOVATIVE COMMUNITY-BASED ACTIVITIES THAT ACKNOWLEDGE UNMET NEEDS. WE CREATE UPLIFTING SOCIAL EXPERIENCES & HUMAN CONNECTIONS FOR LOCAL PEOPLE.Our Story...Our founder resonated with Cycling Without Age movement in June 2017. Support was gathered to purchase W.A's first purpose-built trishaw, founding our states' founding free trishaw rides.Our initial plan was simply to offer daily rides to our seniors and those less mobile along the coast between Sorrento and Trigg. The trigger to expand the initiative came during the CV19 pandemic in early 2020. During the initial lockdown, trishaw rides needed to be postponed. Quickly realising isolation and insecurity would be a major concern, we diversified – and quickly.From moving people, we began moving other things around the community. We began our Moving Food program, delivering food hampers to our supported people. During 2020, we experienced first-hand how much the community benefits from a little kindness and consideration.This expansion led us to create the charity, Motion by the Ocean Inc., the collective you see today. While trishaw rides remain our primary service, food recovery and its delivery to those who need it most has enabled us to provide a more holistic service.Where Cycling Without Age is a global movement, MBTO Inc. is all about our locals, our story, and bringing out the best in people in our neighbourhoods. Trishaw rides are simply part of the journey.Our Trishaws have enabled 3 400 Trishaw participants, to cycle more than 19 000 km, providing 31 000 meals. This satisfying and meaningful journey has allowed us to make countless friends along the way!
