I'm fundraising in memory of my brother, Jamie!
On 17 May 2026, we lost my brother Jamie.
He was one of the kindest people I have ever known. The sort of person who made others feel comfortable without trying, who treated people with genuine care, and who carried a quiet resilience through things most people never saw.
Life without him has been incredibly hard to understand or accept.
I started this page in his memory. Not just to honour who he was, but because I keep thinking about how many people are struggling in silence. How often we only find out when it is too late.
Every day, around eight Australians lose their lives to suicide. That number feels different now. It is not just a statistic anymore. It is real people, real families, real loss. And it is eight too many.
If there is anything I want Jamie’s name to stand for, it is kindness. The kind that shows up in small moments. The kind that makes people feel seen. We do not always know what someone is carrying, so how we treat each other matters more than we think.
Talking helps too. Even the simple act of asking someone how they are, and actually listening, can make a difference. We need more of that. Less silence, less stigma, more honesty.
This page is for Jamie, and for anyone who might need a reminder that they are not alone.
Thank you for being here.

Jamie was genuinely one of the kindest people I have ever known. Though many years have passed since we saw one another, I always smiled whenever I saw his name appear on my screen. He was a truly rare and beautiful soul, and the world is now poorer for his absence. Thank you for the kindness, friendship, and laughter, Jamie. May your memory not only be a blessing to all who were lucky enough to have crossed paths with you, but may we all continue to be inspired by your love and kindness. Requiescat in pace.
For my brother, Jamie. I love and miss you.
