Here we go!

Starting tomorrow, to raise money for the RFDS. Many years ago I worked at Scitech, helping to develop the FLIGHT exhibition. One of my favourite experiences was making contact with a couple who were restoring a RFDS aircraft, and their stories were inspiring. I've always been hooked by flying and have two brothers who are/were Qantas captains. Both spent time in smaller aircraft doing 'milk runs' and coastal surveillance. With such huge distances to cover in remote areas of Australia, the RFDS plays a critical part in delivering essential services to these areas.

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!
