Move with Balmain & Co
On Sunday September 12th I will be joining my teammates at Balmain & Co for a victorious lap (or two) around the iconic Albert Park Lake to raise awareness and funds for R U OK?
On a national scale it’s estimated that 8 people die by suicide each day.
In the construction industry alone, research shows that around 190 Australians take their own lives each year.
In my workplace we do our best to look out for one another. Balmain & Co encourages our team to check in with each other regularly and do what we can to raise awareness and support within our great industry.
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.
Let’s go team!
