We have touched on Keran's journey before, watching her step it out on Friday was inspiring. We are so proud of what she achieved on the weekend. We wish her a fabulous Birthday and 21km Marathon in Noosa this weekend!!

Imagine walking 28km in a day.
Now imagine doing it on crutches with one leg.

Despite cancer, heartbreaking trauma and being told more than once she wouldn’t survive, Keran Villis keeps finding a way forward, one step at a time.

Her story is something else >>> https://greatersa.com.au/keran-villis-walk-the-yorke/

🌟 Stansbury Community Generosity 🌟

At our end‑of‑event celebrations at Watsacowie, Matt caught up with the wonderful Colleen Burke from the Stansbury Post Office — and we were honoured to receive a Stansbury Community Award, nominated by Tracy and David Millard from the Stansbury Holiday Motell.

The Stansbury community has donated $500, raised through the Post Office donation book stand, to support our work with Backpacks 4 SA Kids, Anchor Packs for teens, and the Royal Flying Doctor Service SA & NT Southern Yorke Peninsula Support Group.

Colleen shared a heartfelt message recognising the impact of Walk the Yorkes and the difference these funds make for SA kids, teens and families across regional communities.

We’re incredibly grateful for this support — it fuels our purpose and strengthens every step of the 53km Hardwicke Bay to Port Victoria challenge.

💛 Thank you, Stansbury. Your community spirit is something special.
