Eternally 42 - forever missed, forever loved.
I'm walking to remember those lost to suicide and help people in crisis
As someone who has been personally impacted by the suicide of a family member, I’ve seen the sadness, sorrow and stream of unanswered questions that flow out of such an event. I do not wish this experience on anybody, and the best tool to address suicide is to remind those around us that they are not alone, and that there is hope and help available to them.
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.
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. My walk of 18kms will be completed on the 21st of September, along with my other team members and anyone who wishes to join us.
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 $1,547 so far to answer 39 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.
