I am running my first marathon in January in Hobart in the Cadbury Marathon! It will be in the heat of summer, but hopefully not too hot in Tassie! Thank you so much for the support, it is thoroughly appreciated and I know that it will make a huge difference to a large number of lives.

Community Fundraising for the Black Dog Institute for Black Dog Institute

The Black Dog Institute is an educational, research, clinical and community-oriented facility offering specialist expertise in mood disorders - a range of disorders that include depression and bipolar disorder (formerly called 'manic depression'). The Institute is attached to the Prince of Wales Hospital and affiliated with the University of New South Wales.

The Institute's mission is to advance the understanding, diagnosis and management of the mood disorders by continuously raising clinical, research, education and training standards. In so doing, the Institute aims to improve the lives of those affected - and in turn - the lives of their families and friends.
