Support my challenge to care for young Western Australians

Every school day across Western Australia, 250,000 students walk into a school where someone knows their name. In 2025, YouthCARE chaplains and volunteers showed up in 600 school communities and 38 sporting clubs across the state, from the Kimberley to the Great Southern.

They sat with students navigating hard things, served nearly 700,000 meals through Breakfast Club, delivered 30,760 wellbeing sessions, and supported more than 10,000 athletes and their families on the sidelines.

260,000 people. One consistent presence. Ridiculously good care.

Your support helps provide ridiculously good care to young Western Australians.

⭐️Superhero Steps for a Super Cause ⭐️

This May i am taking on a challenge with purpose!

 Every day in May I will be walking at least  9,134 steps (maybe a bit more depending on how good my walk is on that day)
This is to represent the 9,134 conversations we have supporting staff as Youth Care Chaplains. 💛

So  besides my daily walks with my gorgeous doggo, 🐾🐶 I may be walking around the school ovals a few more times alongside students and staff at my schools as i support them.

However I do this i am commited to stepping up everyday in May to support the incredible work Youth Care does!   

If you would like to sponsor me while I do something ridiculously good to support this cause.  I would be very grateful 🩷

⭐️Every step = every conversation = making a difference ⭐️

Week 2

Saturday 16th May
Week two completed!!! The last 8 day step count. Everyday a little over my 9,134 daily step goal. I did say a minimum of 9,134 steps to match our stat of 9,134 convos with staff at our schools. Walking beauties always to look at as I commit to this challenge, expecially the beautiful beach walks, just reminds me how blessed, to have Gods creation as the scenery as I walk. Stunning

Superhero Steps for a Super Cause⭐️🚶‍♀️👟

This May, I will be taking on a challenge with a purpose!!

From May 1st to May 31st  I will be  walking at least 9,134 steps each day. (Sometimes a little more, depending how good my walk is that day)
