Why am I running 70km this October?

Because the world isn’t autism-friendly enough.

I’m running 70km this October for a cause that is incredibly close to my heart and one that I have a lot of personal experience and ongoing involvement with.


Approximately 70% of autistic people in Australia experience mental health challenges, and I believe we can do better. Autistic Australians deserve a world where they are understood, supported, included and given every opportunity to thrive .. not one that constantly asks them to fit into a world that wasn’t designed with them in mind.


So, this October, I’m running 70km to help create a more inclusive Australia. ❤️


Your donation will help support early diagnosis, autism-specific education and critical research into the mental health experiences of Autistic people, helping ensure they can access the support they need to realise their different brilliant®.


And honestly, every donation will also give me a little extra motivation to get out there, log those kilometres and keep putting one foot in front of the other throughout October!


If you’re able to donate, share my page or simply follow along with my 70km journey, I’d be incredibly grateful.


Thank you for supporting me and, more importantly, for supporting a more inclusive future for Autistic Australians. ❤️
