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.




I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. This cause is deeply personal to me. Living with mental illness is a daily, often invisible struggle. There are days when even the smallest tasks feel like climbing a mountain, and navigating my own mental health journey has been one of the toughest challenges of my life. But I also know how important support, research and community are to help ensure that no one has to face their darkest moments alone. You are not alone!
