I'm swimming to save lives

  • This is my third year diving

  • in for youth mental health

Did you know suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia?

That means that each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.

This March, I'm swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need.

By sponsoring my challenge, you’ll be helping to prevent youth suicide.

All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.

Jjust keep swimming

It’s been a rocky start to my Laps For Life journey. I kicked things off with an ocean swim and got hammered by jellyfish. Yesterday, my swim was cut short when I was evacuated from the pool. But hey, life’s not always smooth sailing – sometimes you just have to keep swimming!
