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.

My Updates

Domestic Violence Awareness

Why is October important?

In Australia, a significant number of adults have experienced family, domestic, and sa violence. The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reports that an estimated 3.8 million adults (20% of the population) have experienced it since the age of 15.

On average there are 9 deaths per day in Australia due to suicide. 1 in 4 have or were experiencing domestic violence.

9 x 365 days equals 3285 suicidal deaths in Australia per year.

9 divided by 4 = 2.25

2.25 times 365 days equals to 821 Domestic Violence SURVIVORS passing due to suicide per year.

I walk each October as a domestic violence survivor to raise awareness.

It’s ok to not be ok, it also does not kill to be kind. Speak up, reach out and change what you can. 💜✌️💜🫶
