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

On World Suicide Prevention Day I'm joining my friend Lily in walking 9km to raise money for suicide prevention, in honour of our her dad Simon, our friend Hunter, as well as everyone else who has struggled with, or lost their life or loved ones to suicide.

Tragically, every year over 65,000 Australians attempt to take their own life and over 3,000 Australians die by suicide. It is the leading cause of death for ages 15-44, and impacts 1 in 2 people by the age of  25. 

Lifeline receives over 1 million contacts from people in crisis each year.

Suicide has devastating impact on friends and loved ones.

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.

Together, we can ensure that no one has to face their darkest moments alone.
