Zoo2Zoo for Mental Health!

I'm taking part in Zoo2Zoo to raise vital funds vital funds for Black Dog Institute. 

1 in 5 of us will experience symptoms of mental illness in any given year. In Australia that’s around 5 million people. And roughly 60% of these people won’t seek help.

I will saddle up and raise funds to show support for mental health research.

Please donate and empower everyone in Australia to look after their mental health.
