Support My Walk for Mental Health Research

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience symptoms of 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.

My Updates

Why I’m putting one foot forward

As most who know me likely know, I have been battling mental illness my entire adult life. 

As a result of chronic physical illness and pain, I’m currently fighting my hardest battle with major depressive disorder. 

I am putting one foot forward this October not only to raise money for the Black Dog Institute, but also as an important part of my own therapy. 

If you are in a financial position to donate, I would greatly appreciate your support. If you aren’t able to spare any cash right now I completely understand - simply sharing this post or cheering me on would be fantastic!

Thank you for reading ♥️
