My Target

71KM

Every day in Australia, 71 babies are born prematurely.

I'm walking 71km this month for the Premmie Marathon Challenge! 💜

As a paediatric nurse, I've seen how important specialised care, equipment and support is for premature babies and their families.

It became even more personal when Leonardo spent time in the Special Care Nursery. Although he wasn't premature, experiencing those early days as parents gave us a whole new appreciation for the incredible care these little babies and their families need.

I would love your support in helping give premature babies the best possible start in life. Every donation makes a difference!

This November, I'm taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge to give these babies the best chance at life.

The funds I raise will help Running for Premature Babies provide life-saving neonatal equipment for hospitals around Australia, giving premature and critically ill babies the chance to grow stronger and go home with their families.

If you're able to support me, I'd be incredibly grateful. Every donation helps fund the equipment and research that gives premature babies a better chance of survival and quality of life.

Thank you for supporting my challenge and helping Australia's tiniest babies. 💜
