Happy 30th Kelly! Loved cactus planet 😁 ☀️ 🌵 🇲🇽 🇦🇺 @cactuscountry #cactuscountry @kelllad @emmajensen27
6 days...... here’s a photo from when I was just 6, Yeah it was back in ‘96, I used to pull all them chicks, I had no time for pricks, back in ‘96 😇🖕
On average, nearly 6 men each day take their own life in Australia. Movember have 1 simple goal, to stop men dying young. My friend took his life at just 26. It’s simply too young to die. I believe suicides can be prevented, that’s why I’m doing my bit to help change the face of men’s mental health. @movember
Thanks for the feedback. I decided to go back and get the shearling jacket. The look on the girls face when I bought it. It’s 44degrees here. It’s not in England though & something has to keep me warm when the beard gets sheared off 😆 #founditatvinnies 🐑 🇬🇧 🇦🇺
Love it when my friends surprise visit me 🥰🇦🇺 ☀️ @monicabutler_x
Taking over the Aussie airwaves on 102.1 Edge FM. Keeping the conversation going about men’s health 📻 🎙 🇦🇺
#10yearchallenge If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living.
I’ll take my clothes off and it will be shameless 'Cause everyone knows that's how Jimmy got famous I'll look at the Sun and I'll look in the Mirror I'm on the right track, yeah, I'm on to a winner... 🤣🇬🇧 ☀️ 🗞
AUSTRALIA Day activities won’t just involve a barbecue and drinks for local Jimmy Ladgrove, who will be shaving goodbye to his beard after five years. The 28 year old has returned for the summer after four years in the United Kingdom to work at his family owned and operated pub, The Vine Hotel, and raise money and awareness for men’s health with his big beard shave. “The beard was always going to come off for charity it was just a matter of time,” he said. “It’s coming up to five years since I started to grow it, and it will also be 10 years since my friend took his own life in Albury. “Now we’re connected more than ever and I’m hearing a lot of reports about the alarming rate of suicides in Australia, especially on the border. “These deaths don’t just affect small communities now, they can ripple across the world instantly with people more than ever sharing their grief and searching for help online. “In my travels over the years I’ve met a lot of men struggling with their mental health and I believe now is the time for me to be part of a change and raise awareness. “I’ve made the most of my whiskers creating a following of thousands on my social media while taking part in four reality shows in the UK and my beard fans and family were shocked at my announcement, but what’s really shocking to me is the alarming rate of men struggling with their mental health.” Jimmy’s shave is aiming to raise awareness and get people talking. “I’d like to be an example that whatever you’re going through you can start clean, whether that be moving to a new country or city, taking the leap of faith and changing career paths, or simply choosing to grow a beard,” he said. “The funds raised will go to tackling men’s health on a global scale, which includes improving mental health for men and boys in rural and remote Australia.
