Why I Febfast
I *thought* I was doing FebFast just to extort money from friends in the name of a good cause, having decided that a bit of a break was needed after a long summer school holidays anyway. But the more I think about it, the more I'm driven to raise money for Lifeline specifically. A sudden loss just before Christmas hit surprisingly hard and if the funds we raise together this month help just one person, their family, colleagues and friends, that will be a massive thing. Thank you for your donation!
Every 24 seconds, someone in Australia reaches out to Lifeline for help
That’s more than 3,000 people every single day who just need someone to listen. By skipping the sip for one month, I’m not only giving my body a break – I’m helping make sure Lifeline can be there, anytime and anywhere, for the people who need it most.
It’s a small challenge for me, but it could mean life-changing support for someone else.
Together we can ensure Lifeline can continue to be there 24/7 so that no one has to face their toughest moments alone.

Why I'm doing this...
Saturday 24th Jan Initially, I thought I signed up to this to extort funds from friends for a worthy cause, for something I was going to do anyway (side-eye to you, school holidays liver damage!) But then I thought more about why Lifeline is a charity that really resonates with me, and a loss due to suicide I felt surprisingly deeply just before Christmas...Thank you to my Sponsors
