Jason Rantall

Wayne FARNHAM (Narracan) (13:02): I would like to give a shout-out today to Jason Rantall from Bettermentall in Trafalgar. Jason over the last 100 days has been running 3249 kilometres, which represents the amount of suicides that have been reflected in Victoria. He is a very, very passionate mental health advocate in our region, and often he has to support people who are really, really struggling. He has over the past 100 days been clocking up the k’s. The community has got behind him, and one group, Kubale Constructions in Warragul, also got behind him. Tim, the owner of the building company, gave his staff the day off and they all had to run for 4 hours. The community were able to bank up kilometres to help Jason achieve his target, and there were some boys there that it is fair to say were a bit sore a few days later.
