One foot forward Palmerston Team

Me here in darwin one foot forward fundraising

I’m doing this event for many reasons but mostly for those I’ve loved who have died by suicide. I’m passionate about mental health and desire to be involved in more work with #blackdoginstitute I have key interests in PTSD & TRAUMATOLOGY. I qualify for a PTSD dog from intimate partner violence traumas. sadly I fall through the cracks for funding so I’ve embarked on a DIY approach and hope to achieve assessor status in dog training soon. pic is me in a hot day walking in deep water with my aquajogger waistband in the dark

Support Our 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, our team will be taking part in One Foot Forward to help reduce the impact of mental illness and suicide.

We’re 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 our walk.

Together, we can create better mental health for all Australians.
