Lockdown wandering

Getting out and about for mental health!

Well, we're all in lockdown again. It's lonely and isolating! So, I've decided to do something positive about it. I'm going to walk a total of 100 km between now and RUOK? Day. 

If you're feeling generous and would like to support me, please click on the link and follow the instructions. 

Here's the standard RUOK? blurb, giving you all the reasons why this is important ... and possibly now more than ever...

I have decided to take on this challenge to help R U OK? to spread their message and help prevent suicide.

About 8 people take their own lives in Australia every day.

For every death, it’s estimated another 30 people will attempt suicide.

89% of people report knowing somebody who has made an attempt.

I want to help change these numbers.

R U OK?’s vision is of a world where we are all connected and protected from suicide.

Their mission is to inspire everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and support anyone struggling with life.

By inspiring people to take the time to ask, “Are you OK?” and listen, we can help people who are struggling with life to feel connected long before they even think about suicide. 

Thank you so much for your support, together we will make a difference.
