Why I'm walking

I'm walking this October as a proud mum of my son Jesse as he is now a retrieval doctor with RFDS Kalgoorlie WA. The work is intense but so critically important to people in rural and remote communities, lets keep them flying together!

I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

My son Jesse is a retriever doctor with RFDS in Kalgoorlie WA and I am so proud of the work they do, reaching people in their darkest hour of need is critical and lifesaving work, lets keep them flying !

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!

Good on you Janice. Had a ride with RFD’s myself when I was working in Kings Canyon and was airlifted to Alice Springs. Was most appreciated.
