Step up for sick kids

Every minute of every day, a sick child is admitted to hospital in Australia. This May, thousands of Aussies across the country have taken on the Starlight Super Steps challenge for those kids.

The Super Steps challenge will have you feeling fitter, feeling good and having had plenty of fun along the way! And whether you choose to walk or run, you’ll be helping bring joy to seriously ill children with every step. Why not join us next year?

Step up for sick kids like Henry

Henry’s life became consumed by hospital when he was diagnosed with Stage 5 Nephroblastoma (Wilms Tumour kidney cancer) after experiencing a sore and bloated tummy.

Admitted to hospital immediately, Henry would go on to endure 46 weeks of chemotherapy, three weeks of radiation, and nine hours of surgery to save his life.

Throughout his treatment, the Captains learned all about Henry’s love of clocks, shared silly jokes, played games, and helped create crafty masterpieces, all to brighten Henry’s hospital experience.

When you join Starlight Super Steps, you’ll help make hospital a happier place for sick kids like Henry. The money you raise will help bring laughter and happiness to sick kids when they need it most.
