Team Bowker

Red Socks Challenge 2026

Our Red Socks Challenge for Kidney Health

People on dialysis spend around 60 hours every month connected to a machine.

This October, our team have committed to the Red Socks Challenge, to stand with Australians living with kidney disease.

We will be taking on 60km in October to honour the hours spent on dialysis — raising awareness and helping fund better care.

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