I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

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!

And so it begins……….

Friday 17th Jul
The time of year has come to start thinking about my challenge in October. Every year I head out and try to walk as far as I can to raise awareness and funds for the RFDS. This year, I am hoping to achieve a minimum of 300km over the month. This total is on top of normal daily activity so I try to head out each morning first thing for 5km and then again in the evening for another 5km. To up the challenge a bit this year, I a planning to add a few longer walks (20km) into the month to help me achieve my goal of walking the Camino next year. watch this space for updates but please note that my actual challenge does not start until October 1st! If you can sore a few coins along the way, that would be grand and thanks in advance xxx
