Why I'm walking

I'm walking this October to save lives and help more Australians access essential healthcare.

Day 1

Original shirt from 5 years ago, she’s seen better days!

I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Here we go again! I only do two fundraisers a year and this is one of them! And I’m walking for the 5th time!! So many people I know have utilised the Royal Flying Doctor Service including our own family. 

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
