I'm fundraising for remote and rural Queenslanders doing it tough
Doing it tough in the bush means doing it extra tough, because people in remote, rural and regional Queensland don’t have the same access to professional mental health services and support. For many, the Flying Doctor is their only option.
I lost my brother on November 17, 2024.
He had been struggling with mental health issues—though none of us truly knew. He was always smiling, always happy, always the one who seemed okay. But deep down, he was hurting in ways we couldn’t see.
This loss has taught me that not all pain is visible, and that sometimes the people who shine the brightest are carrying the heaviest weight. Please be kind. Please check in on the people you love, even the ones who seem fine.
You are so deeply missed, my brother. 🤍
That’s why I’m challenging myself to walk 3km a day in March. I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Please support me!
Together we can keep the Flying Doctor flying, delivering 3 major mental health programs (Drought Wellbeing, Remote Wellbeing and Wellbeing Out West) and over 12,100 mental health consultations a year to regional, rural and remote Queensland.
Please donate to my challenge today!

I'm so sorry for your loss Aysah. The more we talk about mental health, the sooner the stigma will disappear and we all become more open with our own thoughts & feeling and of those around us. ❤️ I hope more resources are provided to remote areas to prevent others having to endure the heartache you and your family are going through. I heard a quote recently, "we die twice in life, when our last breath is taken and then again when our name is spoken for the last time". May the stories of your brother live on for years to come.
