Silent Dave

Help me create a mentally healthier world

I'm standing up to join Team Black Dog to turn ground breaking research into life saving action.

On Friday 14 January I'll be going 24 hours without uttering a single word. Anyone who knows me, knows this is a challenge, but it's a small thing in comparison to the millions of people who suffer from mental illness each and every day... and feel like they can't talk about it. 

Mental illness affects 1 in 5 Australians every year, with the most common being depression and anxiety. Mental illness doesn’t discriminate. It affects people from all walks of life — individuals, families, workplaces and communities.

Please donate today to help me reach my goal of helping others!
