In memory of Michael James Garnaut

By Tara Garnaut Join Me

In loving memory of Michael

Forever loved, forever missed.

We share this not to dwell in sorrow, but to honour the full truth of Michael’s life — a life marked by kindness, loyalty, laughter, and soulful feeling. Let his legacy be one that helps break the stigma, fund support services, and light the path for others navigating darkness.

Mental illness doesn’t discriminate – it affects 1 in 5 Australians every year with symptoms like depression and anxiety. The impact can be devastating, not only for those living with it, but for those around them.

Black Dog Institute is the only medical research institute in Australia to investigate mental health across the lifespan. Their aim is to create a mentally healthier world for everyone.

Your gift will support crucial mental health research and support services that help Australians impacted by mental illness and suicide.

Thank you.
