Why I swim
I’m swimming this March not only due to my own mental health journey & battle with suicide but for all the friends & people I’ve know that lost their battle 🖤 Every lap I swim plus $ donated, will help make sure there are people young Australians can turn to in their darkest times 🖤 Let’s not lose another young life because they felt alone in this big scary world 🥰
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.
