On November the 17th, 2017, I will step in the boxing ring for 3 rounds, fighting back against mental illness.

About 'Wood For The Trees'
Mental illness is something that affects many kiwis. In New Zealand up to 50% of adults have suffered from a mental illness in their lives. That could be a colleague, friend or family member. Unfortunately the number of suicides in New Zealand is continuing to rise with 606 last year.
Wood For The Trees is a registered charity on a mission to help kiwis affected by mental illness. To do this they'll be providing funding to community organisations, creating awareness and open dialogue about mental illness, and to remove the stigma associated with it. Annually, Wood For The Trees will be running various activities such as boxing events, fishing competitions and the raffle of up to 6 brand-new Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

I am involved because I believe that mental illness is a bitch of a thing that needs to be sorted asap. Too many New Zealand youngins are affected by it, and it's destroying lives.
Over 40 corporates will be stepping into the boxing ring to raise funds for Mental Health.
