I'm walking 131km this May for Stroke Foundation

Hi there, I'm taking on the challenge of 131km in May and raising funds for Stroke Foundation to help create a future with fewer strokes.

Every day in Australia, 131 people will have a stroke.

Stroke is one of Australia's biggest killers and doesn't discriminate; it affects anyone, anytime. It claims more lives than breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. And incredibly, up to 120 babies and 400 children have a stroke in Australia each year.

By supporting my challenge, you’ll be helping Stroke Foundation deliver life-changing programs that focus on:

  • Preventing stroke through education, awareness, and encouraging blood pressure checks

  • Saving lives by improving recognition and response — including awareness of the F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) signs of stroke — and strengthening stroke care

  • Supporting recovery with trusted information, StrokeLine, and online communities for survivors and families

Your donation is more than a contribution — it helps people understand their risk, act faster in an emergency, and find support on the road to recovery.

Thank you so much for supporting me and being part of this challenge.

Together, we can help create a future with fewer strokes.

Friday 1st May
Thank you so much Kylie, Judy, Loretta, Olivia and Tiffany for your support. 

I hope you don’t mind, to make my goal a little more achievable in my mind, I’ve decided on a cheeky amendment. 

I’m still going to walk as far as I can, but to be honest with you since Mum passed away 7 weeks ago quite often I haven’t felt like getting out of bed let alone leave the house. 

I know a walk will be good for me, but might dampen my vibe if too much pressure to make the 131 kilometres. 

A good day for me is when I’ve seen a dog or two, as it means I’ve left the house and appreciated a good unconditional smile. Maybe some drool. Even better if I get to pat them. 

So I’ve decided to count dogs and pelicans as kilometres. 🐾 

Hope that’s ok with you supporters 🫶

Today’s progress:
2km 2 laps around Doyle Ground in the dark wearing slides 🩴
2 dogs, a husky and Ollie Maltese terrier
1 pat
1 ‘no sorry, she’s not nice’
1 nearly trip on grass and graceful skippy save

Thank you to my Sponsors
