Support My Walk for Mental Health Research
Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental illness each year?
This October, I’m taking part in One Foot Forward to help Australians impacted by 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.
Thank you to my Sponsors

Hi everyone! 🤍🚶♀️This October I’m walking in solidarity to put myself to the challenge to walk 150km for mental health awareness and suicide prevention. I’m hoping to raise $1,000 for the black dog institute in the one foot forward challenge. This is close to my heart with loosing friends to suicide. Living rural now with realising there is not enough help for our farmers and rural communities. For my mates and family that suffer and can’t speak up for help. For myself that has personally been affected by mental health. By doing this I hope to make a difference!! 😊🤍🚶♀️
