Kye’s Crew

The Bloody Long Walk 2026 - Brisbane

We're walking 35km in The Bloody Long Walk!

Kye’s crew is doing the bloody long walk Brisbane for the 3rd consecutive year to raise funds and awareness to help Australians living with Mitochondrial disease.


Our beautiful son Kye has a rare genetic condition categorised by what is called Leigh Disease with his specific variant being the ABAT gene. There has only been 15 reported cases of this variant world wide and Kye is the only one in Australia. Kye faces many challenges daily but he continues to show us his strength and determination. 


Leigh disease affects his ability to create energy for all his cells and organs to thrive. This disease is a rare genetic condition that causes rapid deterioration of body functions. The average life expectancy for this condition is 2-3 years. There is no cure and we hope that one day there will be. We feel so helpless knowing what we know but we want to do something. 


Please sponsor our team to fund research into desperately needed treatments and cures for this devastating disease.

I am very sorry to hear about the challenges ahead for you and your beautiful family and so impressed by your selfless service to one day help others avoid being in the same position. Sorry that I won’t be around in June to support in person, but all the best to all in Kye’s Crew
