I'm walking to remember those lost to suicide and help people in crisis

Tragically, every year over 65,000 Australians attempt to take their own life and over 3,000 Australians die by suicide. 

Sadly 2 years ago my brother become 1 of the 3,000 to end his life. Ive seen the impact this has had on loved ones before but never felt it so close to home until now. My goal is to continue to talk about mental illness, to break this cycle of shame linked to it, for everyone to know its okay to talk  and for people to have a place to go or call in time of need. 

Lifeline receives over 1 million contacts from people in crisis each year this is why this year for World Suicide Prevention Day (Sept 10), I will be taking part in Out of the Shadows and walking for the 9 people lost to suicide every day.

I'm walking to raise funds for Lifeline to provide suicide prevention services and support for Australians in need.

Please support my walk and sponsor me to help those in crisis.


My impact so far

I've raised $431 so far to answer 11 calls for Lifeline's crisis support hotline to connect and bring hope to people in crisis.

With your support, we can ensure that no person has to face their darkest moments alone.
