One in four adults experience mental illness, and many more of us know and care for people who do. Talking openly about we feel can help.
The challenge involves cuffing a 3kg Medicine Ball to my wrist for 7 days. It may not sound that heavy but being tied to the medicine ball continuously for 7 days is a significant burden. The ball becomes a physical, visual and tangible representation of the invisible burden of mental health so many of us can experience.
The challenge raises money for the following charities. Any support you can offer will be gratefully received and split evenly between the causes.

Support
I am participating in this challenge to raise awareness of mental health. Having personally experienced the struggles, I understand that it is not a pleasant place to be. Often, we don't realize the severity of our situation until it is too late. I consider myself fortunate to be able to share my story. However, many others are not as fortunate. I urge you to support me in raising funds for a fantastic charity and promoting awareness for mental health. Together, we can make a difference.Thank you to my Sponsors
