3,307. A number worth pausing for

This June, I’ll be joining my Hannover colleagues for The Push-Up Challenge - 3,307 push-ups over 24 days, reflecting the lives lost to suicide in Australia in the most recent reporting year.

It’s a simple concept, but one that stays with you. Because mental health isn’t always visible - yet it touches more of us than we realise. 1 in 5 Australians experience mental ill-health each year, often quietly.

For me, this is really about awareness and understanding… and being a little more intentional about how we show up for the people around us.

Proud to be part of a team getting behind something that matters.

And a small nudge for all of us - to check in, to listen, and to create space where we can.

If it sparks even a conversation, it’s worth it.

Supporting Lifeline

Lifeline is a national charity providing Australians who are experiencing emotional distress access to 24-hour crisis support, suicide prevention, mental health, and domestic and family violence prevention services.

Lifeline exists to ensure that no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.

Our experience has shown us that it is through connection that we can find hope. That’s why we are available 24 hours a day to listen without judgement to anyone in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, distressed, or experiencing a crisis. Each year, Lifeline receives over 1.3 million contacts to our crisis support services.

By supporting Lifeline, you are ensuring the Lifeline network has the critical technology, resources and people necessary to deliver crisis support, self-led support, and counselling services around the clock.
