I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service
My family has been in Bourke now for 9 months. In this time, we have had to access numerous medical services. The closest, fully functioning hospital is over 400kms away. I pray that our family will never need this service, however I am so grateful that this wonderful organisation exists.
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!
I pray to god that I or any of my family need this service; however, being in Bourke means that this is a likely possibility.
Thank you.
