As an incredible sunrise brought light to Bondi Beach on Movember 1, 191 pairs of men’s shoes were laid out on the sand in an effort to shine a light on a growing darkness plaguing Australia.
More than six men take their own lives every day across the country - about 191 each month - with suicide the leading cause of death among males aged 15-44.
The installation which greeted swimmers, surfers and joggers on one of the world’s most iconic beaches was set up to mark the beginning of Movember, a more serious introduction to what is a fun month of hairy faces.
