Why I swim

I’m swimming this March to do my part in helping those who struggle with mental health problems and because too many young peoples lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim aims to make sure there's a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming or stressful

Swimmer

Suicide remains the leading cause of death for young people in Australia.

More than 1 in 3 are experiencing mental health difficulties, yet over a million are not getting the support they need.

ReachOut provides anonymous, free and 100% online services so young people can find a safe place to connect, share and get help when life feels overwhelming.

I’m taking part in Laps for Life to make sure these vital services are always there. Please donate to my fundraiser and help more young people get the support they deserve.
