I'm taking on Steptember! Will you please show your support?
Hi! I’m stepping up for a month-long mood boost and taking on 10k steps a day. But I really need your help!
Please donate now to my Steptember fundraiser.
You’ll give me a much-needed motivation boost, plus you’ll feel great knowing that your gift is helping ensure more babies receive critical cerebral palsy therapy and support in their first 1,000 days of life.
Please support me this Steptember.
It will mean so much to me, and to the children and babies who will grow up with a greater sense of independence.
Donate now for an instant mood boost! Thank you!

My STEPtember Challenge: One Week to Go! 👟
Thursday 24th SepHi everyone,
This September I've been taking part in STEPtember, a month-long challenge to walk 10,000 steps a day while raising money for people living with cerebral palsy and other neurological conditions.
This year is extra special for me because I'm back as the University of Sydney's STEPtember coordinator. It's my job to get teams across the whole University signed up, stepping and fundraising, and it's been such a joy watching colleagues from every corner of campus get involved. So far, USYD has raised over $30,000 dollars, which I'm really proud of.
On top of coordinating, I'm also captain of my own team, the Shared Service Centre Striders. We've been squeezing steps into every part of the day, from early morning walks to pacing around during meetings (working from home has its perks!). So far I've clocked up 300,000 steps and raised $550 dollars.
Why it matters
The money raised goes towards therapy, equipment and research that makes a real difference to the everyday lives of people living with cerebral palsy and their families.
How you can help
With just one week left, every donation counts. If you're able to chip in, even a few dollars, you can donate on my page here:
https://www.steptember.org.au/s/43808/751776
And if you'd like to see what the whole University is achieving, you can check out USYD's fundraising page:

Thank you
Thank you so much to everyone who has already donated or sent messages of encouragement. It really does keep me going on those days when the step count is looking a little low! 💪
