Childhood trauma (including bullying, abuse, neglect, witnessing or experiencing violence) affects an estimated five million Australian adults.
Having experienced trauma in my childhood, I know that without immediate mental health support, help is needed later in life.
Sufferers of post trauma can turn to drugs or alcohol as a way to cope socially, when things get hard or in periods of anxiety & depression.
To tie this all together, I am setting myself the challenge to go alcohol free for 12 months. Every month that I go alcohol free I will donate $50 to the Alannah & Madeline Foundation.
With your help and support I will make the 12 month mark and raise much needed funds to support a service that I feel needs much more attention.
Love should never run dry, especially when it comes to children. Please share my page, donate if you can and help me make a difference.
