Forgot to show off a photo with Bindi last night 😊

Like a toddler jumping in puddles

Bindi loved the walk in the rain … I didn’t mind it either 🤣

Let’s get going

March On started today. The boys kept me company on their bikes … and we had a quick stop off at the BMX track.

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:

42

peer support
sessions

40

employment
support

2

psychology
sessions

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