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.

A walk to remember – every step for marisa

Continuing my challenge this month to raise awareness and support mental health, in loving memory of my daughter, Marisa. Today we enjoyed a beautiful walk 5.26km at The Briars in Mount Martha, a very special place for me, where I planted a wattle tree in Marisa’s memory in September 2018. It was such a pleasant walk, surrounded by the fresh spring breeze, beautiful scenery and local wildlife. A lovely way to spend the day, reflect and feel close to Marisa. 🌿💜 Every kilometre is walked with love, remembrance and a purpose. One step at a time, closer to 100km. 💜

One step closer

100km for Marisa ❤️ It was freezing cold and raining this morning, but I wasn’t going to let the weather stop me. I managed to get 4km done, one step at a time, in memory of Marisa and to raise funds for mental health. Every kilometre counts. ❤️

For mental health walk

100km for Marisa ❤️ I’m taking on a 100km challenge to raise awareness for mental health, in memory of my beautiful daughter, Marisa, who passed away in 2018 at just 32 years old. Unfortunately, One Foot Forward didn’t record my walk today, so I’m sharing a photo from Strava instead as proof of my kilometres. I’m walking these 100km in Marisa’s memory, one step at a time, while supporting something that is so important to so many people. For Marisa, and for everyone struggling with their mental health. ❤️ 100km. One step at a time. For Marisa.
