I will be Shaving My Dreadlocks!
Mental health and suicide prevention is something close to my heart - I unfortunately lost my brother that way. It feels awful knowing that my brother felt like he had no other way out, and I wish he was still here.My Achievements

The Day of The Shave!
I have been raising money for Lifeline with the declaration to shave my dreadlocks. The fundraiser has been a real success thanks to everyone’s generosity and support.
My initial fundraiser target was $2,500, and at this stage, together we have raised over $4,900! 🤯 And on Saturday I shaved my head!
Thank you to everyone who has donated to Lifeline.
Mental health and suicide prevention is something close to my heart, and Lifeline does an incredible job at supporting those who are having a difficult time.
Make sure to reach out to your friends and family. Simply asking "How are you?" goes a long way 😃
Thank you to Rob Krauss for shaving my head - it was poetry in motion 😆
Thank you to the Uni Norths Owls for getting behind the cause, promoting it, and facilitating the event to shave my head.
Thank you to Jayzie Photography and Andrew Dawson for the great pics!
And finally than you to my friends and family for supporting me!
I'll see you all around... probably with a beanie on 😉
Thank you to my Sponsors
