So far I’ve completed 33 Ks for Kids this August

I’m Doing Ks for Kids like my grandson, Teddy

Did you know that 1 in 20 Aussie kids are born with a genetic disease or birth defect? That’s one in every classroom! For Teddy and his CTNNB1 friends he is one of only 500 in the world… when he was born in December 2020 the number was 300!

This August, I’m taking on the Ks for Kids challenge - walking or running to raise funds for Children’s Medical Research Institute, supporting scientists who are working today to find cures for tomorrow.

Your donation will help keep labs running, research advancing, and hope alive for kids who need it most.

Every step I take with family, friends and my Vision gym community is for them. Your donation will help me go the distance and fund vital research!

Vision for Teddy

Teddy is my inspiration for taking steps to reach my goal of 100km this month. I am enjoying the benefits of walking. Gaining better fitness and highlighting the importance of genetic research…. Often it is the piece of the puzzle missing for many syndromes!!!! I am proud of the amazing work Peter & Lucy do for their son and those who have CTNNB1 syndrome. Grateful for all the hard working CMRI scientists doing fabulous and life changing work… thank you to all my supporters helping me get my walking shoes on over August! A very good cause :)
