I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

My family and I love driving trips across Australia.  We have crossed Australia 6 or 7 times now - generally across the Nullarbor but have also been the great central road.  

We have had a couple of encounters with the RFDS on our travels - from sick kids in Eulo, a snake bite (or was it a mozzie bite) at Innamincka, the the various landing strips on the highways in the outback.  

I love the roots of the RFFDs - if you have never read their story - you should.  It’s all about Faith, remote people in the outback and resourceful service to others.   

John Flynn was a Presbyterian minister and rightly adorns our $20note   

This October, I’m taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need. By going further, I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).

Every year, the RFDS reach more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary healthcare services. That’s one person every two minutes!

Together, we can keep the Flying Doctor flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to my challenge today!
