Simpson Desert Bike Challenge 2024
I’ve been fortunate to ride to the tip of Cape York a number of times now with the CYA team. Having never been to the Simpson, I thought ’why not’!
Another bonus of this ride is to raise funds to help keep the Flying Doctor flying!
Having lived in remote regions of Qld I’ve seen how vital the Royal Flying Doctor Service is for people living, working, and travelling in remote, rural and regional areas of Australia.
The Flying Doctor is always on call to help and save lives, and that’s why I’m asking you to chip in to and help the RFDS to provide the finest care to the furthest corner.
Go on. Please donate now towards my fundraiser, and let’s see how high our tally can fly.
My impact
So far, my fundraising could help…
Provide a full range of life saving medication such as sedatives, pain relief and antibiotics so the Flying Doctor can be ready for 77 emergency situations.
Send 40 life saving-medical chest to remote communities
Provide one on one counselling to 25 outback Australians during a difficult time
Purchase 16 pieces of equipment that could include ventilators, defibrillators and infusion pumps which are used on board flights
Thank you to my supporters
