Why I'm walking

I’m taking on the 87km challenge because supporting people in rural and regional Australia is something that feels close to home for me.

Growing up on a farm, and now spending a lot of time on the Nullarbor I understand that living remotely comes with its own challenges, particularly when it comes to accessing medical care when you need it most. The Royal Flying Doctor Service provides an incredible lifeline to families and communities who can’t simply drive around the corner to a hospital.

Walking 87km is going to challenge me, but that’s exactly why I want to do it. It’s an opportunity to push myself physically and mentally, while raising money and awareness for a service that makes a genuine difference to people living outside our major cities.

For me, this is about giving back, challenging myself and supporting the rural and regional communities that will always hold a special place in my heart.

Every kilometre has a purpose! ♥️
