We are taking part in this year's Big Red Kidney Walk in support of Australians affected by kidney disease. It’s a cause close to my heart.

Sadly, around 60 Australians die every day with kidney related disease. One in three Australians is at increased risk of kidney disease and an estimated 1.7 million Australians over the age of 25 already have at least one clinical sign of existing kidney disease. It's a very important health issue that urgently needs more awareness and support.

Our gorgeous boy Noah was born last year suffering with a very rare kidney condition called Auto Somal Recessive PKD.  The start was very touch and go but in true little Leo attitude he fights it with everything he's got. Noah is on numerous medications and has spent many hours, days, weeks, months in hospital. We are hopeful all the time for a cure. 

As I start to count down to my Big Red Kidney Walk, I invite you to cheer me on and to dig deep to help me reach my personal fundraising goal to support the work of Kidney Health Australia.
