Why I swim
I am participating in Laps for Life this March, to raise money for services that provide much needed mental health support and suicide prevention for young people. Too many young lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming. This is a cause that’s very near and dear to my heart, as myself and many friends and loved ones have experienced mental illness and without the support of services such as these, may not have lived to tell the tale.
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.
