R U OK? Bay of Fires Fundraising Trek

Support R U OK? in the stunning Bay of Fires Tasmania is a trekkers dream, famed for its fresh air, spectacular scenery and unique wildlife - you will be enthralled and inspired every step of the way. This challenge will take you through diverse Tasmanian landscapes, as you trek along endless stretches of secluded beaches with fiery rocky headlands, wander through forests with hidden waterfalls and marvel at striking coastlines with pristine water. In December 2023 we will embark on the R U OK? Bay of Fires Trek, one of Australia’s greatest natural beauties. We cover 35 kilometres over 4 days. Their mission is to empower people to meaningfully connect and lend support by building the motivation, confidence and skills of help-givers to start conversations with anyone struggling with life. But we need your support. The funds you raise on the R U OK? Bay of Fires Trek 2023 will go towards funding nation-wide campaigns to help better prepare people to look out for their mates and have life-changing conversations. R U OK?’s vision is a world where we're all connected and protected from suicide.
