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.

My Updates

One foot forward | day six

Four kilometres along the beach path this morning (Tuesday), with a bit of a shuffle this time. It’s been a wee bit since I ran anywhere except out of patience. The legs were a bit ‘hold the hell up?!’ but I enjoyed it, and I will persist 😁 Total - 24

One foot forward | day four

Five and a half kilometres on the Meelup Track today, with a couple of side quests to whale watch, climb a look out, spot tiny wildflowers while defrosting from a snorkel. More quality time with loved ones 😊

One foot forward | day three

A leisurely three and a half kilometres today with some of the fam, on our beach. A beautiful sunset to be. Quality time ❤️ Total - 15km

One foot forward | day two

Another five kilometres today, some on the treadmill and some at my favourite beach with my favourite walking buddy. Movement has always been a form of therapy for me, as is the ocean. I’m privileged to live where I do and have access to the medical care that I do. Not everyone can access private mental health care. We need public mental health care to be as readily available as emergency health care is, especially in regional areas where there are far less resources. Total - 11km

One foot forward - day one

Off to a decent start this morning with just over 5km in the bank. It was such a beautiful walk along the beach path, our peppi trees are flowering which means warmer weather is right around the corner 🌞 Did you know that 1 in 5 people will experience a mental health illness every year? Mental health research, treatment and resources are not as readily available as we need them to be in Australia. That’s why I’m walking for #onefootforward this October. I want to help make things better for the millions of Australians who need support.
