I'm stepping up to make a difference, joining Heart & Sole - Walk for Sick Kids

When a child is injured, or diagnosed with a serious illness, it affects the whole family. Lives can be turned upside down, and it puts families under enormous pressure. For many families, it can feel like it’s impossible to hold it together.

That’s why I’m participating in Heart & Sole - Walk for Sick Kids this year. 

I’ll be taking on the 20km challenge, raising much needed funds to help the thousands of families with ill and injured kids that rely on Ronald McDonald House Charities Northern NSW each year.

Whether it's through the Houses in Newcastle and Tamworth, Family Rooms in John Hunter Children's and Gosford Hospitals, Family Retreat in Forster and the Learning Program across Northern NSW - RMHC Northern NSW is there for families, so they can be there for theirs.

Please support me by making a tax-deductible donation to my challenge. Your generosity will make sure that Ronald McDonald House Charities can support even more families with a seriously ill or injured child when they need it most.
