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

A few more k's

A few more k's under the belt training for the big walk in october. this is only half the k's I will be doing each day for 3 days straight not sure if I will make it yet today hurt.

The Black Dog takes another.

Just over a week ago, my aunty, a daughter, sister, mother and grandmother, lost her battle with the Black Dog.

 

This loss has hit my family hard. Mental health is something that has always been important to me, and anyone who knows me well knows I value mental wellbeing just as much as physical health.

 

While nothing can take away the pain our family is experiencing, I hope that by sharing our story we can help others and prevent another family from going through the same heartbreak.

 

In October, I have set myself a personal challenge to walk 150 kilometres in one week to raise funds for the Black Dog Institute and the incredible work they do in supporting mental health research, education, and services.

 

More important than any donation, I ask that if you're struggling, please speak up.

Reach out to someone you trust. It's okay not to be okay, but you don't have to face it alone.

 

Over my years working FIFO, I've seen firsthand how challenging life can be at times. I've also seen the difference a simple conversation can make.

Check in on your mates, listen with an open heart, and never underestimate the impact of asking someone, "Are you okay?"

 

If you'd like to support my fundraiser, any contribution, big or small, would be greatly appreciated.

 

Together, we can help ensure that more people get the support they need before it's too late.
