Over 3,000 Australians lose their lives to suicide every year.

Tragically, over 3,000 Australians lose their lives to suicide every year. These people are our family, friends and loved ones.

Join us to walk for World Suicide Prevention Day (September 10) to remember those we’ve lost to suicide, and raise funds to provide crisis support and suicide prevention services to save lives.

You can walk to remember a loved one, as a personal tribute for a friend or family member, or to show your support for Australians experiencing emotional distress or mental illness.

Through connection, compassion and hope, we will unite to raise awareness, overcome stigma and commit to preventing further deaths by suicide.

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