Been thinking of getting fit and losing a few kilos? Now is the time to do it by joining Northcott’s Fit for Funds program! Not only will you get fit, but your efforts will raise money for Northcott so we can make a real difference to the lives of people with disability.

People with all kinds of abilities are encouraged to participate in Fit for Funds by pursuing activities that suit their lifestyle. You can walk, run, swim, dance, join a wheelchair basketball match, ride, roll or play your favourite sport, give up smoking or change your eating habits. Try a new activity like yoga classes, boccia, golf, go for strolls on the beach or run your first ½ Marathon!

How can I join Northcott Fit for Funds?

Just follow these simple steps:

First, head to https://www.everydayhero.com.au/event/fitforfunds and click ‘Join Now’. Within minutes you can set up an everydayhero account and start building and customising your very own fundraising page.

Then simply pick any activity you enjoy and set your goals. Next, start to upload your activity record using the Strava or MapMyFitness apps. If you don’t use these apps you can still be part of Fit For Funds – just post photos and messages of your progress on your fundraising page.

What will my efforts achieve for people with disability?

$15 will help us run our unique and inclusive sporting carnivals, giving children with disability an opportunity to compete with their peers.

$30 will help enable a child to participate in a ‘Skills 4 Wheelies’ workshop, learning the safest way to use their wheelchair.

$60 will help us run workshops to empower young adults, providing them with skills to live a more independent life.

Spread the word!

Use social media to get your message out and don’t forget to add #NorthcottFitForFunds to all your Instagram photos and Facebook posts about your activities.

Ready, set, go!

See you in May!
