About My Challenge

💙 3,307 PUSH-UPS. ONE REASON. 💙

If you work in custodial, youth justice, or emergency services—you already know.
No stats needed. No awareness campaign required to explain it.

You’ve seen it.
You’ve carried it.
You’ve taken it home whether you meant to or not.

I’ve spent years in Youth Justice and Adult Corrections, standing in rooms most people will never walk into…
Seeing people at their lowest…
And standing shoulder-to-shoulder with colleagues after the kind of shifts that don’t just “end” when you clock off.

Because this job doesn’t stay at work.
It lingers. It builds. It sticks.

That’s exactly why I stepped into the Staff Support Officer role —
Not for a title… but because looking after our own isn’t optional. It’s necessary.

💪 So this is me doing something about it.

This year, I’m taking on 3,307 push-ups for The Push-Up Challenge —
To raise awareness, start conversations, and support the services that help when it all gets too heavy.

Not for attention.
Not for fitness.
But for the people doing the job every day.

👇 If you can donate, it genuinely makes a difference 👇

Every dollar helps fund:
• Early intervention
• Real support services
• Resources for frontline workers and the communities we serve

To those behind the walls…
On the road…
In control rooms…
On the floor…
In the moments most people never see…

I see you.

Let’s keep backing each other.
Let’s keep checking in.
And let’s carry the weight together.

💙 Push up for better mental health 💙
