TRIGGER WARNING: DISTRESSING CONTENT!
The 2025 Walk for Awareness in Brisbane once again brought hundreds together under the Story Bridge, transforming Captain Burke Park into a sea of bright shirts, shared stories, and collective purpose. Those who took part, including Axis Clinic, were families walking in memory of loved ones, friends supporting one another, and strangers united by a common goal: to break the silence surrounding mental health and su***de.
What stood out most was the spirit of hope that seemed to thread through the event. Each of the 9 kilometres symbolised both remembrance and resilience, reminding us that awareness and compassion are powerful forms of prevention.
The Walk for Awareness served as a poignant reminder that every step counts, that simply showing support, listening, or talking openly about mental health can ripple outward in meaningful ways.
