2026 March On Challenge

Early morning thoughts

I started my walk this morning at the Torquay ANZAC memorial. Not a day goes by where I am not thankful for all of the sacrifices those that have gone before me have made. Today I thought of my mates, near and far, home and abroad, and how each has shaped me into the woman I am today. Geez we faced some troubled times together, and look at us now - look what we have overcome! When we challenge our own mindsets, and open ourselves to change, we dare to be great. My mates dare me to be different. My mates back me when I have a go. My mates give the best hugs and just the right amount of tough love. I think of them when I lead. I listen to them in moments that need a village. How blessed I am to have this.

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:

35

peer support
sessions

33

employment
support

2

psychology
sessions

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