Why I'm walking

Hello, my name is Heather Moore.; I am 75 years old, a Medowie local, and for the third year in a row I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

We all know 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. Can you imagine, where you live, having to drive that long to receive medical assistance? Just this year, the price of fuel has increased dramatically and is having a huge impact on everyone, but especially these Aussies.

This October, I’m taking on the month-long challenge by walking at least 98 kilometres to help more people access the care they need, this is at least 3km everyday rain hail or shine! 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.
