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!

My Story:

Only 4 months ago my partner became very ill very quickly while living in Doomadgee, the hospital didn’t have all the resources and supplies to help him get better. That’s when the RFDS stepped in and saved the day, they flew him to Mount Isa where he got more answers. Again Mount Isa didn’t have the treatment for him and it wasn’t looking good, the RFDS came to the rescue again with a second flight in the same day to get him to Townsville where he could get full treatment. If it wasn’t for RFDS I’m not sure if my partner would have made it through the battle.

Together, we can keep the Royal Flying Doctor Service flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to my challenge today!
