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.

Why i walk
Heya! I’m Charlee, and I’m walking in solidarity this October to raise awareness of the toll mental health can take on many Australians a year. This is my first year joining this walk and I have a goal of 200km! I’m excited to get going and to spread word and support. I have watched many people, friends, family have their up and downs throughout my life, and many people still do not feel comfortable enough to reach out for help. I walk to give people the confidence to reach out, whether it be a mate, a family member or a stranger. Or seek the professional help they need. Everyone is different, everyone deals with things differently, everyone thinks differently and behaves differently. But all these things make us unique as individuals. And that’s the beauty of it. We are all amazing individuals. So no matter how hard it may get sometimes, remember that you matter, and you are not alone. Do not hesitate to reach out. 🧡
