Why I'm walking

I'm walking this October to save lives and help more Australians access essential healthcare.

I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

This time last year I had a serious motorbike accident near Menindee, NSW, i was driven to the closet’s clinic and then I was airlifted by the Royal Flying Doctor Service to Broken Hill before being transferred to Royal Adelaide Hospital. After a three-week long stay and major surgery, I’m now running to support the RFDS and help them continue providing lifesaving care to people in remote communities.

This crash has taken a big mental toll on me for sure but I’m so lucky to still be here as it could have ended a lot worse for me.

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.

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!
