Men's health issues to 'take a hike'


August 08, 2023

Springfield resident Luke Hinschen will be walking from Grafton to Brisbane next month to help raise funds and awareness for men’s health.

Luke has set a bold fundraising target of $50,000 – to be donated to the Movember Foundation.

A monumental 386-kilometre journey along the Pacific Highway, “Luke’s Long Walk” will begin on the morning of Sunday, September 24, in Grafton, New South Wales.

It is scheduled to end two weeks later on Saturday, October 7, in Brisbane city.

“The plan is to start in Grafton, and walk up from there,” Luke said.

“Every day, I’ll be putting out at least one video. I’ll be doing a live video as well.

“I’ll be promoting the sponsors when I stop at towns like Broadwater and Surfers Paradise.”

Luke is still looking for additional partners and sponsorship opportunities – particularly in Logan, the Gold Coast, and anywhere south of the border – particularly in places along or near the highway where he can visit on the way to Brisbane.
