For my birthday this year, I’m doing a 60km solo, overnight hike to raise money for the ADHD Foundation Australia… 🥾
ADHD is a far more widespread and serious (and expensive) problem than many people realise. After reviewing all the support available for people and families living with ADHD in Australia, I can wholeheartedly endorse the ADHD Foundation. Their heart for people and sense of passion and purpose is rare and precious. 🧸 They really care and they're doing amazing work. 🌟
The plan for the hike is pretty straightforward… 🧭 I'll leave home in Kedron around sunset on Saturday, hike up to Jolley’s Lookout on Mount Nebo (30km if I don’t get lost) and aim to get back mid-Sunday-morning! 🌙⭐️ It will probably end up being about a 16-hour round trip -
Can you imagine hiking through cold, dark, mountains for 16 hours non-stop...!?! It’s by far the longest hike I’ve ever attempted. It's scary and exciting and to be honest, I don’t know how it’s going to go! 😬
The real challenge isn’t just my physical endurance VS. the distance & altitude… 💪 the real challenge will be my mental endurance VS. the cold, dark and of course, missing a full night's sleep! 😴
So, the fundraising bit… 🤩
Can I ask you to please commit to donating a small amount of money (maybe a few dollars - or even just a few cents) for each kilometre I walk, to the ADHD Foundation in support of the extremely valuable and highly underrated work they do in our community? 🤑
Hit donate and get it done now or share your commitment on my Facebook post and I’ll let you know how I go… 💰
