It is growing increasingly more common to be effected by, or know someone affected by suicide among young bright talented men. I’ve personally dealt with the loss of too many of my mates and am compelled to do something about it. It’s hard to know exactly what to do so here is my proposal. A good mate of mine and I are going to be paddling in the ocean from Ulladulla to Bawley point, a roughly 25-30 km open ocean paddle to help raise funds for the black dog institute and to honour the men who have taken their own lives. Do you want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money in aid of BLACK DOG INSTITUTE and every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about BLACK DOG INSTITUTE: The Black Dog Institute are working to reduce the incidence of mental illness and the stigma around it and actively reduce suicide rates. Your donation will help us develop research and tools for a mentally healthier world.
