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

Day 3 - first ride/s

With a slow start to proceedings due to equals part injury and laziness, I finally was back on the bike today. To anyone who has experienced or continues to experience Mental Illness, one foot forward is as simple as getting up and going for a walk. Changing your environment, your heart rate, fresh air, exercise and free endorphins. Get amongst it daily. Thank you to all the people who have supported me in my life, through my crazy ride with my own Mental Health. Big Love 🚴‍♂️☯️🙏🧬👍
