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 am recovering from a recent accident when I fractured my femur and ended up with a total hip replacement.  To support my recovery my goal is to walk a minimum of 5000 steps per day, progressively increasing this number each week.  

As my work colleagues had joined this month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need, I decided to also support this very worthwhile cause and at the same time keep up my motivation to my recovery.

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!
