20 Hours of Silence for Youth Mental Health.
This year I'm taking part in the 20Talk 20-Hour Challenge on Sunday, 6 September 2026.
For 20 hours, I'll stay within a 2-metre square in complete silence to help raise awareness for youth mental health and the importance of starting conversations, with up to 400 other people.
This challenge is especially close to my heart. This year marks 20 years since my brother tragically took his own life at just 25 years old. In his memory, I'm hoping to help raise awareness, reduce stigma, and support young people who may be struggling.
If you're able to, I'd be incredibly grateful for your support. Every donation, big or small, helps raise awareness and fund vital mental health initiatives that can change lives. My goal is to raise $1000.00.
Thank you for supporting me and this important cause. ❤️

Belinda, what you’re doing is something to be incredibly proud of and truly speaks volumes about your commitment to supporting youth mental health. So many of us have been touched by suicide in some way, and so many of us have children entering a stage of life where looking after their mental health and wellbeing is more important than ever. What you’re doing helps shine a light on something that deserves so much more awareness and support. Well done, and wishing you all the best for your 20 hour silence! Xx
