Almost at Shepparton


Day six has been a big one. I have walked 33km, across Yorta Yorta country, to finish at Wahring. This means I have walked 187km over the last 6 days, with 824km left until I reach the PM’s office in Marrickville, NSW. Can you help by writing an email to your Federal MP, urging them to ask the PM to meet with me when I deliver the petition to his Electorate Office in Marrickville?
Every day I am joined by more refugee activists and refugees on sections of the walk, some of whom are driving hours to meet me along the route. Thank you so much for your support. If you would like to walk with me, details of my route can be found here.
I will rest in Nagambie tonight and tomorrow I will head towards Shepparton, with a rest day on Tuesday. Hopefully this will be a chance to get on top of the blisters and rest my legs.
Local Shepparton refugees have organised a welcome event for me. Please join us at 4pm, 8th August at 17 Enterprise Drive, Shepparton, where I will speak to refugees and activists about my walk.
Please follow my walk and progress on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter - I am posting daily videos and updates.
Thank you to everyone who has signed and shared the petition so far, please keep sharing!
