Check out www.paddledogs.org Some friends and I (the 'Paddledogs') will paddle kayaks across Bass Strait in March 2009 to raise awareness about bipolar disorder and money for the Black Dog Institute. We're running in the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival as part of our training program. We'll run the 9k bridge run in a canoe...Fred Flinstone style! Please support us with a donation to the Black Dog Institute. Thanks, Paul
    Black Dog Institute

The Black Dog Institute is an educational, research, clinical and community-oriented facility offering specialist expertise in mood disorders - a range of disorders that include depression and Bipolar Disorder (formerly called 'manic depression'). The Institute is attached to the Prince of Wales Hospital and affiliated with the University of New South Wales.
The Institute's mission is to advance the understanding, diagnosis and management of the mood disorders by continuously raising clinical, research, education and training standards. In so doing, the Institute aims to improve the lives of those affected - and in turn - the lives of their families and friends.
