60-kilometre walk in memory of Dean Atkins

Wednesday 10th Jan

This June, I'm embarking on a 60-kilometre walk to honor the memory of my mate Dean Atkins, who sadly left us last year. Dean's absence has spurred me into action, fueling my determination to shed light on mental health issues that burden so many silently.

More than a tribute, this walk is a mission—a mission to illuminate the shadows of mental health struggles and honor Dean's legacy by advocating for greater awareness and support. 

I firmly believe that together, we can make an immense difference. Let's strive for a world where mental health receives the attention and care it rightfully deserves.

Your support means everything to me. I'm reaching out to request your help through a donation to benefit 'R U OK?'—an Australian non-profit dedicated to preventing suicide. Every contribution, irrespective of its size, holds immense value and will directly impact this cause. 

If you would like to donate please click the link below:

Your generosity will not only make a tangible difference but will also send a powerful message of solidarity to those silently battling their own struggles—they are not alone.

Together, let's work towards raising awareness, breaking the stigma, and ultimately saving lives.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ 

In memory of my mate Dean Atkins 💙
