I’m walking in Heart & Sole - Walk for Sick Kids to help families stay close

I’m taking part in Heart & Sole – Walk for Sick Kids to help families stay close when it matters most.

When a child is seriously ill or injured, everything changes. Being close to the hospital can make an incredibly tough time just that little bit easier.

That’s why I’m walking 20km and raising funds to help families stay close to their child’s care at Ronald McDonald House, in hospital Family Rooms, and across Northern NSW.

Around $190 can help support a family for one night providing a place to stay, meals and the comfort of being together.

If you’re able to, I’d really appreciate your support.

Every donation helps families stay close when it matters most.

Thank you - it really means a lot.

20km complete

Sunday 14th Jun
Challenging my fitness today’s walk took just over 4 hours to complete. Two quick stops at the 12km and 16km mark then pushed on. Home now and feet up for a rest. Great cause and lots of kindness and encouragement from the other walkers. Grateful for everyone’s support (both personal and financial)
