Why I'm walking

I’m fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service with my team Sharon, my wife, and Billy (fur kid).
Our team ‘Green Head RFDS Walking Warriors’ are walking 651 kilometres each during the 1st to 31st October (21 kilometres per day or half a marathon) to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service in the ‘Oceans to Outback’ Challenge. We are in training and getting our feet primed for our month long October walkfest.
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. I know times are tough and money is tight but it might be you on holidays or working away or a family member that might need RFDS. So, when we are starting our challenge, I will keep you posted with photos and updates and if you are able to help with some $$$ please do. Also if you forward these posts and photos to your friends and family I would really appreciate it.
TOGETHER WE CAN KEEP THE FLYING DOCTOR FLYING AND SAVUBG LIVES

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!
