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.
Since starting my job at the Roma Hospital and experiencing the work of RFDS first hand, this cause is near to my heart. I wouldn’t be able to provide the best care possible if it wasn’t for the help of the RFDS team (nurses, doctors, pilots, etc.). This organisation is paramount in the provision of medical services and personnel to those who need it most. Without them, rural healthcare wouldn’t be what it is today
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!
