Why I'm walking
I'm walking for my dad Tony, who was airlifted by RFDS in April this year, when we had a medical emergency in Exmouth. We will be forever thankful to what they did for my dad.
Donate now >>I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service
In April 2025 dad was visiting from South Africa and we went on a camping trip of a lifetime up North in WA, when we unexpectedly found ourselves with a medical emergency in Exmouth. Within hours it was decided that Dad needs to get to Perth ASAP for an MRI. Don't know how we can ever repay RFDS for what they did for dad. He had nothing but absolute praise for them. Hopefully we can raise some much needed funds to help so many other families out there, who's lives depend on these flying Angels.
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!
