I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

When I was 17, dealing with severe (unknown triggered) anaphylaxis meant my parents and school were naturally nervous about me heading off on a remote school trip to the Northern Territory.

​I wouldn't have been allowed to go if it weren't for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Knowing their medical support was out there in remote Australia gave everyone the peace of mind to let me join in.

​Because of them, I got to be part of a milestone Year 10 trip that I've never forgotten. Supporting this fundraiser is my way of giving back to a service that made experiences like mine possible for kids in regional and remote areas.

This October, I’m taking on a month-long running 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, any amount counts!
