The Long Walk Back to the Sheds
πΆββοΈ The Long Walk Back: A 230km Journey for Mental Health Awareness
Join the community in supporting Craig from The Long Walk Back as he undertakes an extraordinary 230km walk from Singleton to Speers Point, raising awareness and funds for Talk2MeBro, a charity committed to mental health awareness and suicide prevention.
Over three days, Craig will travel through local communities, visiting sporting clubs, soccer grounds and community gathering points to connect with players, volunteers, families and supporters. His journey is about more than the distance covered. It is about encouraging meaningful conversations, promoting mental wellbeing, and reminding people that help is always available and no one has to face challenges alone.
π Get Involved
Community members are encouraged to stop by one of the scheduled locations, meet Craig, share a conversation, and show their support for this important cause.
