I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Australia is a big country, and for those living in remote, rural and regional areas, access to immediate care isn’t a guarantee. For some communities, the nearest hospital is eight hours drive away.

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!

So far this year
I’ve helped provide...

My feet are tired and I have been walking all day in promised zig zag sewing pattern. But there are peeps that make it worthwhile.

Scope day

Friday 3rd Oct
Right-O, today I’m back with the BPDH team that inspired me to join the walk for RFDS. I will be turning on my activity tracker for work today. I think it may look like a zig zag sewing machine pattern stuck on one spot by the end of the day. Will see what distance I make!!! Sad dog doesn’t want mummy to leave lol
