I'm walking to remember those lost to suicide and help people in crisis
๐ฉท I truly never want anyone to feel alone in this world. Reading Lifelineโs tribute wall, I am heart broken at how many family and friends comment that they would have done anything to help their loved one/s before it was too late, but sadly they didnโt even know about half the battle their loved one was facing. Reaching out and talking about mental health is not at all easy, but it is so important.ย
I hope that my friends and family know I am always here for them, and that they are NEVER alone ๐ฉท
Tragically, every year over 65,000 Australians attempt to take their own life and over 3,000 Australians die by suicide.ย
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.
My impact so far
I've raised $435 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.
