I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Being raised in Scouting has instilled in me the firmly held value of giving back to my communities - I've known from a young age that I wanted to use my skills and abilities to do what I can to help others. For those that know me, know that this has manifested in wanting to be a RFDS pilot someday. Until I have those thousands upon thousands of hours, though (someday!), I will be running 87km this year to represent a lifesaving fleet of 87km, and raising money with every step. That's 6 more km than last year!!!

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!
