My Red Socks Run for Kidney Health

This October, I’m showing up for every renal unit, every patient and moving towards a future without dialysis.  

There are over 15,000 Australians on dialysis, and that number is rising. That’s why urgent action is needed now - to slow the progression and ultimately stop it. 


Every dollar raised, every km logged, every step we take brings us closer to a future without dialysis.

Join me to honour the 60hrs a month someone spends on dialysis and together we can Move for them and Move for change!

Please donate to support a better future for people with kidney disease.

Only One More Week To Go ...

Friday 24th Oct
Thanks for all your support so far ...

Also having problems with 'offline donations' due to technical difficulties. The joys of modern technology.

I've been walking 2 to 3 times per week - with friends and doing Tamworth parkrun on Saturdays.

Only one more week to go and gearing up to do another Parkun tomorrow.

I wasn't sure if these posts reach my Facebook donors so, my apologies if you receive this twice.

Also received this mug after raising $250.

Nearly there!!

Tuesday 21st Oct
Many thanks to everyone who has donated.

Amazing how walking 4-5 kilometres per week has helped achieve my goal of walking 60 kilometres, including Parkrun on Saturdays.

Received this mug once I raised over $250 although I paid $10 for postage.


Halfway Through October

Thursday 16th Oct
So far I've walked 48 kilometres since I signed up in September and raised over $400.

Today I walked with friends along the Parkrun route (5 kilometres)

Many thanks to everyone who has donated money so far.

My Red Socks Arrived In Today's Mail

Thursday 9th Oct
These were waiting for me at the post office today, after raising $60 for Kidney Health Australia.

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far as the total is now over $300!!!

Halfway There!

Tuesday 7th Oct
I've passed the halfway mark as I've walked 33 kilometres so far.

Walked along the Peel River today with friends from the over-50s group, then brunch at a local cafe.

So easy to keep track using the Strava app.

Many thanks to those who have supported me with donations.

Tamworth Parkrun

Saturday 4th Oct
Another 5 kilometres done today at Tamworth Parkrun.

One Week So Far

Tuesday 30th Sep
It has been a week since I signed up for Red Socks Run to raise awareness about kidney disease.

Many thanks to friends who have donated so far.

Get a Kidney Health Check when you visit your GP - to check blood pressure, urine and blood tests.

Highly recommended for anyone who:

- smokes or vapes
- is overweight or obese
- over 60, had a stroke
- had a heart attack or heart failure
- a family history of kidney failure or acute kidney injury
