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!

So far this year
I’ve helped provide...

15

Laryngoscopes – used to assist in intubating and ventilating a patient.

9

Life-saving medical chests for a remote, rural or regional community.

8

Defibrillator Pads – used with a machine to monitor a patient’s cardiac health.

Monday 1st Sep

well today I went to see my doctor to get his approval to do the walk. his first comment nearly flooded me. " Do you want me to do the walk with you". I said " doc, when are you going to find the time to do this, you word 6 days a week. You are on call at the hospital for 5 days and do thearter every Friday. how about I walk and you get people donating ". he said "Ok, that's a deal."
