Alyce Fluff Fenton
I'm broken, but it's not forever. Please help me get to Kokoda!
Story
Hello!
I'm Alyce/Fluff, and I currently have a broken leg. Tib and fib to be exact, and I'm waiting on more surgery as I write this. However, I've signed up to walk the Kokoda Track in April next year, because I'm slightly insane.
I supported the RHHRF a few years ago by fundraising $500 and abseiling off Wrest Point Casino; this time I need to raise $3500 to qualify for Kokoda.
I'm a bit terrified about what I've signed up for, but at the same time it gives me something to look forward to; a reason to get off my crutches and back on my feet ASAP.
Please read below for more info on Kokoda and the Royal Hobart Hospital Research Foundation, and help make my goal a reality. I know I can do this!!

The Kokoda Track was the scene of bitter fighting when the Australian Army fought to defend Port Moresby from advancing Japanese forces in 1942. Today, walking that same track has become an iconic pilgrimage for those wanting to honour the ANZAC spirit. The Trek for Medical Research will take place over ANZAC Day 2020 as a special commemoration of the historic events.
Regarded as one of the world’s greatest treks, the Kokoda Track links the south and north coast of Papua New Guinea across 96 kilometres of rocky mountain terrain, tropical rainforest and remote villages.
THANK YOU so much for visiting this page.

Help us fund local medical research – for Tasmanians, by Tasmanians.
Every year, the RHH Research Foundation receives many more applications from clinical researchers than it can support. Each of these applications has the potential to produce ground-breaking, even life-saving medical discoveries.
With your help, we can fund three year-long Project Grants by raising $75,000 through the Trek for Research. The money you raise will support these research projects and could be part of funding a medical breakthrough.
“The Trek for Medical Research will make an immense difference to our capacity to support the health and wellbeing of our Tasmanian community. The Trek has the potential to not only continue to increase funding, but to build crucial awareness around the vital work of the Foundation. This enables us to do even more to support future generations and continue to invest into local medical research associated with the diseases and disorders that impact people across our state.”
- RHH Research Foundation CEO Heather Francis
