Our team is fundraising for...
The Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service, by taking part in the 2025 Byron Coastal Charity Walk.
Every dollar raised contributes to keeping the Rescue Helicopter Service available 24/7, 365 days a year.
The AW139 Helicopters cost $1,000 per hour in fuel, $1,000 per hour to run the engine, $1,500 for the airframe and for $500 avionics, that’s a total of $4,000 per hour.
Support my fundraising page to keep the helicopters and crews ready to respond when needed.

Hey, please don't post this on Facebook. The flagrant self-promotion is kind of gross. We've all done charity. Anyway, here's the money I owe you. I'll get you the rest later.

You’re a real piece of work buddy. I you have a terrible walk. It’s incredible such a good cause would allow you to walk. They should do a character test prior to accepting entrants.

I donate this reluctantly, I hope the blisters appear early and that years of neglect catch up with you at the 1 kilometre mark. I won't be there to watch you as I have some paint drying that day which I'll need to keep an eye on.

Truly inspiring to see such an unremarkable person involved in such a remarkable cause. Still unsure how Westpac let you get away with it.

I’m so fucking broke But I just wanna say: This guy’s real name isn’t even Adam. It’s fucking Gary. He’s a lying piece of shit. I don’t even know what this is for but I’m sick of this fucking guy. Sometimes I see him out in town pretending to be a guy called Adam and it really fucking grinds my gears. Piece of shit. I hope your house of cards catch up to you and people see you for who you really are. GARY. I hope a grizzly bear takes you out during your walk and everyone sees you get mauled by an apex predator
Hope you have a great walk my friend for a wonderful cause. Cheers Rossie
