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.
I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. As a suicide survivor myself, I understand how isolating it can be and how difficult mental illness can be. A few close friends have unfortunately lost their battle with depression, growing their wings this year. There is such a negative stigma around mental health and I want to create awareness and reduce the negative stigma to encourage others to reach out.
