Walk for a Bloke Brisbane

What is Walk for a Bloke

Walk for a Bloke is more than just a 25km challenge. It’s a day for blokes to step up, walk side by side, and make a real difference for men’s mental health.

This is your chance to reconnect with old mates, meet new ones, and be part of something bigger - a movement that gets blokes talking, walking, and supporting one another.

Whether you walk solo, rally your mates into a team, or get your whole workplace involved, every step you take helps change the story for men’s mental health.

For Carl

Saturday 14th Feb
This March I’m taking part in Walk for a Bloke for my cousin and longest best mate, Carl 💚  
⠀  
We lost him a few months ago to suicide, and it still doesn’t feel real. Carl was one of those people who lit up a room, he was funny, loyal and always the first to help others…but behind that cheeky smile, he was struggling.  
⠀  
Across Ireland and Australia alone, we lose around twelve men every day to suicide! That’s twelve families, twelve circles of mates changed forever. 
Suicide is the main cause of male deaths under the age of 45! 
This needs to change. 

I know from my own battles with mental health and depression how easy it is to bottle things up…
But keeping it all inside doesn’t make you stronger, it just builds pressure until it spills into every other part of your life.  
⠀  
So please… talk to your mates, talk to your family, talk to me. You don’t need to have the right words. Just start the conversation.  

So this March 21st (the day before Carls would be 41st birthday) I will be doing this walk for him. 
If you’d like to donate, that’s amazing (no pressure at all). 
Or if you’d like to join in, please do…
it’s a 25km walk, so there’ll be plenty of time to talk, listen, and just be there for each other.
