Why I'm walking

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

I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

While driving from Sydney to Perth and travelling through outback NSW, I was struck by just how vast Australia is and how, for some people, medical help can be hundreds of kilometres away.

That’s when I truly understood the incredible importance of the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS). 

So, I’ve decided to do my little bit to help.

I’ve accepted the challenge of walking 90 km throughout October to raise funds for the RFDS.

90 km might seem like a long way, but it’s nothing compared with the distances some Australians travel to access medical care.

I’d be incredibly grateful for your support, whether it’s a donation, encouragement, or simply sharing my challenge.

Every kilometre. Every dollar. Every bit of support counts. 🙏❤️

A note from a flight nurse - Bill (USA)

Thursday 3rd Sep
Hey Madhi! 
What a great cause! Close to my heart actually. Many years ago too many actually I went to Australia and flew with the SLSA out of Sydney and trained with them for a week. I was a flight nurse paramedic here at the University of Florida when I decided to go to Australia.

I wrote like a letter with postage to the SLSA in Sydney and they accepted me come over and they did training that week I was there. I continued into the outback and visited a flying Dr location airport dirt strip, etc. and I was really touched by what they did and they gave me a tour. They didn’t fly me anywhere, but it had a profound experience that touched me. 

Those items that you have contributed to so far I work with every day and they are all within my reach in my current work . So I’m honored to help you reach the goals you’re looking for and I wanna hear all about it. 

Honestly I’d be more impressed if you ran that 90 km! Ha ha.
