I'm supporting youth mental health
This August, I am teaming up with a group of dedicated miners to embark on a unique fundraiser to support youth mental health.
Venturing into the remote Kimberley wilderness, we'll be testing our physical and mental endurance to raise vital funds for Youth Focus, allowing them to provide more mental health and vocation support services to young Western Australians aged 12-25.
The thought of encountering crocodiles in the wild scares me, but not as much as knowing that my children are more likely to die from suicide than any other cause. Having access to youth mental health support services is vital to tackle this, including early intervention like the free, accessible services offered by Youth Focus.
I am aiming to fundraise $15,000 to support this important work. Please help me by making a donation, large or small, through my page.
Thank you, I really appreciate your support.
For almost 30 years, Youth Focus has been providing mental health counselling and support services to young people aged between 12-25 years old, making a difference in the lives of tens of thousands of families. In 2023/2024 Youth Focus supported 3,707 young people with 22,290 occasions of service.
Youth Focus is the only non-government youth specialist mental health service in Western Australia that offers young people early intervention mental health counselling and support, without referral and at no cost to them or their families.
At Youth Focus we aim to create a community in which young people feel safe reaching for support, and that high-quality services are available when they do. We want this to be the reality for all young people, everywhere in Western Australia. Our services are accessible, evidence-based, and youth-specific and include:
- Counselling for a wide variety of mental health and wellbeing challenges, including anxiety, depression, family conflict, school stress, body image and eating disorders, and suicidal ideation
- Education and community engagement
- Vocational support for work and study goals
- Support for communities impacted by suicide, natural disasters, and other crises
Thank you to my Sponsors
