Why I'm walking, running & riding for water this October!

Almost one in ten people across the world do not have clean water close to home. Every day, women and children walk long distances to collect and carry water for their families. Girls and boys often begin collecting water as children and girls continue to collect and carry water throughout their lives. Many girls spend hours each day collecting water, which can cause them to miss time at school. And not only that, sometimes the water they are forced to collect is dirty, carrying water borne diseases and leading to sickness in their community.

I'm walking for water this year, so they don’t have to.

Together with team mates at Barwon Water, and colleagues throughout the water sector, I'm raising funds so people around the world can access clean water for the first time.

Please donate to my fundraising page to contribute to WaterAid's amazing work. For just $50, WaterAid could buy water system tools to provide a rural community with clean water. But you don't have to donate $50. Any donation is a good donation!

Please spread the word by sharing my fundraising page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot.
