Story

Hey everyone

I think we can all agree that the pandemic that we've had to go through over the last two years have been a constant reminder of how important it is to take care of our health.

The meaning of health for me is not just about the physical health, but most importantly about the mental health.  I know my mind is clearer when I move and be more active, which helps not just for my own wellbeing but also increases the concentration level, productivity and helps me to become a happier mum.   

I am participating in Bridge to Brisbane and running (walking) for a cause that is close to my heart. Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice who are doing some amazing work, which is the First Light Widowed Association - special foundations for young widows in Australia. 

Grief and loss is a personal journey, but it can also be debilitating and affect those around us. I believe by raising awareness about grief, loss, especially those who have lost our spouses before or around 40 year olds can be quite an unchartered territory.

Together we can make a big impact on race day!

Thank you so much for your support! You're awesome!

First Light Widowed Association Inc.

First Light Widowed Association is a national charity that connects young widowed people to resources, programs and an accepting, supportive and understanding community to support them through the overwhelming task of re-building their lives after the death of their partner. 


Young widowhood can be incredibly isolating, lonely and confusing. For many, First Light provides the first opportunity to access resources and information, including our online and in-person support programs. These help to validate the complicated emotions and experiences of being widowed young, and give a sense of comfort and renewed hope, providing the strength and motivation needed to rebuild lives.
