2011 Flood
Hero Jordan Rice to Receive Bravery Medal
Success! On
the 6 of May 2016 at 2:00pm, Jordan Lucas Rice will be presented
with a Bravery Medal at Government House, Queensland. This event can be viewed
real time or at a later date - please see link below. Having this event livestreamed is a great
honour bestowed to me by the Governor of Queensland, his Excellency Paul De Jersey
AC and as I understand, is very rarely afforded to many.
It is due to the simple
stroke of the pen and the hundreds of thousands of emails and phone calls which
have provided sheer weight in numbers that has ultimately resulted in the
largest
Change.org petition in Australian history. I would personally like to thank each of you
for your generosity, support and solidarity as it is YOU that has made this
award happen – a victory for the common man. Our journey has not been easy and
make no mistake, I am more than aware that this award has been granted under
duress.
I sincerely hope every single
one of you can take a little bit of this award with you in the knowledge I will
proudly accept this award on your behalf and in honour of Jordan’s
inconspicuous courage in such circumstances of extreme peril.
I am determined more than
ever to keep Jordan’s legacy alive and in turn pay forward the kindness and
generosity afforded to us via
The
Jordan Rice Foundation. The battle
may be a challenge, yet my burning desire to help others who may find
themselves in similar circumstances to me will never wain - no one should ever
be left to fall by the wayside.
