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.

Mental health support in needed
Tonight I finish my shift as a volunteer First Responder at an event where many patients presented with mental health challenges. Loved the care and acceptance from all team members and public. I was sadden to know NDIS reforms meant cuts to funding for many of those in need which directly impacted their mental health. Even more support and research is needed! Share
Our girl
Our beautiful, bright 7 year old girl full of life and a ball of energy was diagnosed with ADHD, Autism and Anxiety late last year. Whilst she is full of so much excitement and energy she frequently experience anxiety attacks manifesting in abnormal pains and in worse cases, vomiting. We are learning to adjust and common frequent experiences kids experience are experienced as suffering and fear for our daughter. We are learning. We are accepting. We are working with strategies to work through this so in future it becomes easier for her in the long run. Share

I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. As a mother who is working through Major Depressive Episode with a child who battles daily with anxiety brought by her Austism and ADHD - you are not alone. I hear you. I feel you.
