I'm fundraising for MATES in Construction

I am excited to announce that throughout April, I will be taking on the physical and fundraising challenge of the MATES Long Lap 2025.

You are not alone is something I firmly believe in when it comes to mental
health. That is why I will not be taking this challenge on alone.

By igniting hope for our mates, we make the world a better place. We feel supporting 'MATES Long Lap' is important not only for the Construction community, but also for everyone's well-being.

There will be regular updates throughout the month to keep you all up to date on the Long Lap progress. Every donation, no matter how small, can make a significant difference and help MATES continue their crucial work.

Thank you for joining us and MATES on this journey towards a healthier and more aware community.

My Journey

Wednesday 2nd Apr
These statistics break my heart.

In 2024, 617 people died by suspected suicide in New Zealand. 

Mental Health affects approximately 47% percent of people in New Zealand, yet it is still ignored or "shut down" by some. 

If you do not suffer from mental health, i can nearly guarantee you know someone who does. 

Me, personally i have suffered from mental health issues in the past. Its a tough road, and you need as much support as you can get, and not be shamed for reaching out. 

This is why i am taking on the Long Lap 2025 challenge. Its time we stamped out the negative stigma that surrounds mental health and start supporting, our mates and simply asking - What do you need from me? A walk, a coffee, a round of golf - anything to show support for your mates.
