Why I swim
This cause is very close to my heart. I lost my husband to suicide ,and as a grandmother of six beautiful grandchildren, I’m Deeply aware of how precious and vulnerable young lives are. No family should have to experience the pain and heartbreak that suicide leaves behind. By supporting this fundraiser, you’re helping to raise awareness, provide early support and give young people hope when they need it most. Thank you for standing with me and helping protect the next generation.
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.
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.
