Kylianne Farrell is a wife, mother, and founder of Move for Mental Health, an organisation dedicated to helping save lives, and the quality of lives through empowering people with opportunities, skills, tools and education to make a move towards positive wellbeing.
Kylianne founded Move for Mental Health after she struggled with her own depression and anxiety. Since then, she has dedicated her life to educating and providing resources and support to those struggling with their own mental health, to help people be their best selves and live life the way they want, and get the most out of it.
