Lifeline Melbourne

Out of the Shadows 2024

Lifeline Melbourne

Tragically, over 65,000 Australians attempt to take their own life and over 3,000 Australians lose their lives to suicide every year. These people are our family, friends and loved ones.

Lifeline Melbourne answers almost 35,000 calls each year, from people experiencing crisis. Many of them are thinking about taking their lives.

On 8 September, the Sunday before World Suicide Prevention Day (10 September), we will be walking to remember those we’ve lost to suicide, and raise funds for Lifeline Melbourne, 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.

Please support our walk, maybe fundraise, or make a donation to help those in crisis. Together we can ensure that no one has to face their darkest moments alone.

I’m sure we’ve all been at a point where we should’ve called lifeline but haven’t, but the people that do are so strong and brave for reaching out for help and all of this money donated will get people the help they need. Good job Sharn, what a good charity to donate to. Also good job walking 9kms, love ya x
