I’m walking in solidarity this October for Australians affected by mental illness and suicide. You are not alone. Mental wellness is something close to my heart especially knowing how it affects me and everyone around if I don’t look after the whole me.

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 why…
I have read a few posts so far where people are dispondent and probably struggling to muster enthusiasm to do the moving if they cannot raise the donations. I see you. Life is tough at the minute and the financial pinch for many is just the tip of the iceberg. I have realised (and have probably known) that we don’t need donations to get moving. I know The Blackdog Institute can’t do their valuable work without it, but raising donations shouldn’t be the first goal of this challenge. For me it is that daily movement is the cornerstone of good mental health. And once you start moving and the blood rushing and the endorphins pumping then only can we get pumped about anything else. Get moving! ❤️My impact over 3 years
