This one is personal. I'm doing it for me and anyone else who has been hospitalised because of their mental illness.

I'm growing my mullet this April for Black Dog Institute's Mullets for Mental Health.

9 people in Australia die by suicide every day. Over 75% of mental health problems occur before the age of 25. 

My mullet and funds raised will help us drive real change and fund ground-breaking mental health research. This will put digital services and education into the hands of people who need it the most.

It would mean a lot to me if you donated to support my mullet.

Together, we can create better mental health for all Australians.

When the black dog starts nipping it can be hard to prevent the bite. You are a strong chick. You'll rock the mullet

Oli went to the barber the other night and instead of asking for his usual short back and sides, he asked for a mullet. Behold the mini mullet man!

Mel's Marvellous Morphing Mullet Remulleted

Thursday 10th Apr
After taking time to MULLET over, I wasn't totally happy with how my mullet looked so I went to the barber tonight for remulleting. Sporting an even shorter mullet I am now smiling bigger and am even more proud of what I am doing. I hope that people will see a woman rocking a mullet and donate.

Wearing it with pride

Yesterday was the big day. I went in to the hairdresser with a head full of beautiful curls and left with my funky mullet.

The hairdresser asked me "How do you feel?" and I said "Lighter!"

I felt lighter because I knew that I was doing something which can directly benefit people who are going through what I have gone through.

I never want anyone to feel alone when they are at their lowest. We need groups like the Black Dog Institute to provide support for people suffering with their mental illness.
