2026 March On Challenge

Support my challenge to prevent veteran suicide and save lives

Right now in Australia, at 42%, suicide is the leading cause of death for ex-serving males aged under 30 years old.

So, this March, I am walking to support Soldier On's mental health services and programs to help prevent veteran suicide and save lives.

It would mean so much to me if you donated to support my challenge so that we can show veterans and their families that they are not alone... we stand strong with them.

Together, let's help our heroes march on.

Thanks so much for your support.

So far, I have helped provide:

93

peer support
sessions

88

employment
support

5

psychology
sessions

...to support the mental health of our brave veterans to help them march on.

My Kokoda Track Journey

My Tribute Post

Service never ends. It lives on in our memories, our families, and the quiet battles carried long after the uniform is folded away. The We Salute You wall is a promise that our veterans are seen, respected, and never forgotten. It keeps mateship alive and honours the resilience and sacrifice of all who served. Lest we forget.
