Story

I will be running 42 km / 26 miles in the world renowned Virgin Money London Marathon for The Salvation Army to raise funds for the bushfires in Australia.

I moved to London in May of 2019 on a 2 year Visa to fulfil the Australian dream of travelling the world and living abroad.  As an Australian living far from home, it has been heart breaking to watch the devastation of the Australian bushfires broadcasted all over the world for months on end.

I am raising money to help The Salvation Army UK send vital funds to Australia. All money raised will be sent to Australia to help The Salvation Army provide relief and ongoing recovery to rebuild and prepare Australia for future disasters. The devastation of these fires will have a significant impact on Australia for years to come.  

Australia is my home and I know I am only one person but I want to prove that no matter where you are in the world, you can still make a difference.

If you have the ability to do so, please donate and share (or just share) to help me smash my target of raising $4000 / £2000 to help Australia get back on its feet again.

Donations can be made in Australian dollars, British pounds, Euros and Canadian dollars with no currency fees!

Thank you!

With Love,
The Australian Living Abroad
