If you know me, you’ll know that if I’m running, something is probably chasing me. So, I’m walking. 

On 24 October, I’m taking on a 21km night walk through Brisbane to raise money for the Children’s Hospital Foundation and Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland.

Working with children every day, I’m constantly reminded of just how important it is that children and their families have the right people, care and support around them when they need it most.

For families with a seriously ill child, long days, sleepless nights and having life turned completely upside down can become their reality. Walking 21km through one night is a pretty small challenge by comparison, but hopefully I can use it to make a little bit of a difference.

I’m aiming to raise $1,500, and I’d genuinely love your help getting there. Whether it’s $5, $20 or something more, it all adds up and supports some pretty incredible work for Queensland children and their families.

And, selfishly, knowing people have backed me will make it considerably harder to give up at kilometre 17...

Thank you for supporting me and, much more importantly, the children and families this is all for. 💜
