Why I'm running

Still one of the scariest days of my life.

Back in 2018, our little 8 day old Ellie contracted parechovirus meningitis and had to be airlifted to the Queensland Children's Hospital in Brisbane by the Royal Flying Doctor. We were very grateful for their amazing service and care.

This October I'm running 87km and raising money to keep the RFDS flying.

If you can spare a few dollars, please consider supporting the challenge.

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!
