Our story starts with Gidget

Gidget was the nickname of a vibrant young mother who tragically took her own life while experiencing postnatal depression, a diagnosis that she kept to herself.

In her honour, her family and friends created Gidget Foundation Australia, which evokes Gidget’s warmth and lively spirit.
