Support My Walk for Mental Health Research

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience symptoms of mental illness each year?

Mental illness can be debilitating and can have a devastating impact on not only those living with it, but those around them. 

This October, I’m taking part in One Foot Forward to help reduce the impact of mental illness and suicide.

I'm walking to raise funds for Black Dog Institute to put ground-breaking new mental health treatment, education, and digital services into the hands of the people who need them most.

It would mean so much to me if you donated to support my walk.

Together, we can create better mental health for all Australians.

I only knew you for a short time, but your kindness leaves an impact on people Lara. while I didn’t know your brother you always spoke so highly of him and with such love. I can’t imagine what your going through. My deepest condolences

I was just thinking of Ryan only a few minutes before I saw your post. I think of him a lot now and how I wish I had talked to him more when he was around. I only heard the news a couple weeks ago and it brought a tear to my eye as one of my own sisters has attempted suicide and I cannot imagine the heartbreak you and your family now carry. I wish you all great health and good fortune❤️

Lara and Nancy, you two are really one of the strongest people I know. All the love my heart can hold goes to the two of you. I miss you both and Ryan so dearly. Everyday I feel his presence and his name never leaves my head. I think about him a lot. I think about the most recent conversations I’ve had with him. And while it hurts so much, please know that you’re never alone and there are so many people around you, in this world, here for you both. The weight that you carry not many people can hold, the pain that you feel shows such strength in you both. I love you both and I’m always here ❤️❤️

Oh gorgeous Lara, what a beautiful act of service and a testament to hope. This is truly inspiring and will open vital conversations and model other coping strategies but hopefully they will see a village of people ready to grab, steady and even carry through the rough times. Inspiring me to move.
