Back in June Opposition leader, Tony Abbott, auctioned his surfing skills off for charity. The prize for the winning bidder? A surfing lesson by the man himself.

Community action organisation, GetUp!, raised the most money and put forth a former Afghan refugee, Riz Wakil, as the recipient. Since then, however, Abbott has refused to return calls and the lesson looks unlikely to occur.

GetUp! would like to see Abbott honour his commitment. See what you can do to help.
