I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Our first trip to Lord Howe Island lasted one night. My beautiful wife, Fiona, had an accident riding a bicycle and severely fractured both her arms. Thanks to some great people on Lord Howe and the crew of the RFDS plane that flew from Dubbo to get us, we got her to some great medical care in Sydney the next day. Australia never ceases to amaze me with its selfless, generous people and I have never felt so grateful to an organisation like the RFDS. The pilot and nurse worked an incredibly long day to help us. The people of Lord Howe Island were extraordinary and are so lucky to have the RFDS there to help in emergencies.

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!
