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.
On March 3rd this year my 25yr old nephew Jordan lost his battle with mental health 💔. 4mths and 4 days later on July 7th his brother Brayden aged 27 also lost his battle with mental health 💔. There are no words to describe that kind of devestion, or the domino effect of mental health struggles for their friends and family because of their passing. Everyday 9 people lose their battles with mental health, that is 9 too many. This October I will be walking 5kms for each year of Jordy's life and 5kms for each of Brayden's (260kms in total). Raising money won't bring Jordy and Brayden home but it can prevent other family experiencing the same.
