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

Final day of walking.

I managed to get in a final walk for this month. I have enjoyed the walking but with being away and unwell I've not walked as far as I wanted. So glad that our team efforts were awesome and made our goals for a great cause. Well done everyone 👏 👍

Day 7

I wandered the streets in Adelaide for 4kms before going to Teddy Swims concert. Good day I think.

Inside walk on the treadmill

I walked at the Rec Centre on the treadmill before pilates class. Did not like it at all, but completed 4 kms.

Day 6 walking

Started out for 5 km again and got 8km. It's an overcast cool day and I wore a light jacket, probably shouldn't have. My watch states 9 kms but the app say 8. Have a great day whatever you do and keep active in body and mind. Flowers make me happy.

I’m cheering from the sidelines. Mental health is so exhausting for all - for those who suffer, and those who support.
