I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

I've needed to be flown out of Gayndah to hospital twice myself, once to Brisbane (suspected neck and spinal injuries) and once to Bundaberg (breathing constriction) l know first hand how vital this service is to those of us who live in rural areas.

So I'm joining my neighbour Kym's team, her daughter was recently in a car crash and was flown by the RFDS to hospital in WA.

Please join me in support of this vital organisation which services the whole of the country no matter where you are.

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!
