Important update: Event cancelled due to severe weather.

We're walking All Night Long and would love your support!

We’re back in 2026 walking All Night Long - 42km to support Ronald McDonald House Charities South East Queensland and the Children’s Hospital Foundation.

 

This cause is close to us and we’ve had many visits to the children’s hospital. Our daughter Ashlee (13) lives with a kidney condition that makes her more vulnerable to infections and often requires medical care. Over the years, we have spent countless nights in hospital with Ash, and this walk is our way of giving back. While these times are tough, we know there are families doing it much tougher and these organisations do incredible work to help families and sick kids.


We’ve upped our fundraising target to $5,000 this year. If this resonates with you, we’d be truly grateful for any donation to help these amazing charities continue their work.


Thank you to our Sponsors
