Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because too many young lives are lost to suicide. This is an issue that not enough is done about, and I want to help do more. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming. I hope I can make a difference and the money I raise is used for the good. What Reach out is doing is super admirable!
I'm swimming to save lives
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.
I am swimming to help facilitate a safe place for people to chat when life gets tough and you feel like everything is against you.
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.
