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.

Double Dare

A friend said he’d double his donation if I dressed up in a Kath and Kim costume. Posting this image and story on fb took my $ amount over my goal so it was worth the embarrassment.

Thanks for taking part Jo. Mental Health needs all the support it can get. It's nigh impossible in regional Australia to get the right help at the right time & it can be deadly for too many people. Good on you 🤩

There is still a Stigma about mental illness. The absence of a bandage does not mean it is not painful or real.
