Support my 9km walk to prevent suicide and save lives.

Journey after suicide loss

My beautiful niece was taken from us by the devastating grip of suicide. Then, just a few months ago, my incredible brother joined her in the shadows. The pain of losing them is indescribable, and the emptiness they left behind is immeasurable.

The journey through the aftermath of suicide has been arduous, and the weight of sadness has been soul crushing. But amidst the grief, we’ve found strength in supporting a cause that can make a difference. We are determined to prevent others from facing the same darkness and despair.

We are taking part in the "Out of the Shadows Walk" to raise funds and awareness for Lifeline, an organisation dedicated to preventing suicide and saving lives. The walk spans 9 kilometers, symbolising the (almost) 9 Aussies that take their lives daily.

With every step we take, we will be remembering our loved ones, cherishing the memories we shared, and honouring their lives by making a positive impact on others who may be struggling.

We urge you all to join us in this journey of hope and support. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, can help Lifeline continue their life-saving work.

Let's turn our heartache into action, and let love and compassion be the driving force behind our efforts. Support our 9km walk to prevent suicide and save lives. Together, we can make a difference and bring hope to those who need it most.

The walk is on ‘World Suicide Prevention Day’ - 10th September.

Feel free to join our team. We will post details of the walk in weeks to come.

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.

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

Suicide has devastating impact on friends and loved ones.

On World Suicide Prevention Day, 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.

My impact so far

I've raised $1,038 so far to answer 26 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.
