Support My Walk for Mental Health Research

Did you know that 1 in 5 Australians experience symptoms of mental illness each year?

In fact, every day in Australia, 9 people will die by suicide.

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’ll be 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, so that they can 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

Final day!

The final day of the challenge and I wanted to finish on a high to keep me motivated for the MS Wollongong to Sydney bike ride this Sunday, and just to keep the routine going for all of November. So one final stint on the stationary bike at the gym tonight has given me an extra 24kms in distance traveled and hitting the 300km mark for the entire month. Happy days ! 👍

One pedal forward 😁

Decided to hop on the bike today as it was such a lovely evening. Is that cheating 😜 I'll add an extra 13kms of walking before October is out just in case 😂 A combination of road and bike trails in the beautiful Mount Annan Botanical Gardens. I had plenty of local spectators cheering me on 😜 Cheers Dave H
