Taylor Chief Financial Officer, Clive Wickham, has successfully completed his 10ᵗʰ Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) Outback Car Trek, joining more than 240 vintage vehicles on an 11-day, 3,800km journey from Bathurst to Cairns. This year’s Trek raised an incredible $1.58 million+ for the RFDS and the communities it serves. This brings the total raised over the Trek’s 35-year history to more than $37 million. The Trek not only delivered vital funds but also injected an average of $75,000 per day into local economies along the route. Clive and his brother Phil once again drove their custom-built 1970 Ford Mustang, continuing a tradition that began in 2007. Congratulations to Clive and all Trekkers for their community spirit and incredible contribution to rural health.
