Why I Febfast
I had a bit of a personal health scare in January that could have been a heap worse than it actually ended up being. However I'm giving the liver a spell for a bit and reassessing my relationship with alcohol and a few other vices. If you've got time swing a few bucks my way to help a good cause. Thanks
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.
