Join Lifeline Hunter and our local community as we walk for those who have lost their life to suicide and the ongoing impact it has on Australians every day.  

Date // Tuesday, 10th September  
Time // 6am-8am (walk commences 6.30am)

This event is an opportunity to show your support for a suicide-safer community 

  • A coffee van will be on-site and the Lions Club will be cooking up a BBQ Breakfast for anyone who would like a coffee and a bite to eat. 

Paid Corporate team sponsorship is also available. We would love to see local businesses support local Lifeline services through team sponsorship.

Help us answer the call. 

Unfortunately, we lose 9 people to suicide every day in Australia. Lifeline answers over 3500 requests for help each day.  Please, help us give hope to even more people in crisis and get closer to our mission of an Australia free from suicide.
