Swimming in karumba



This morning I was flown out to Karumba in the Gulf of Carpentaria to do a clinic. How lucky was I that the town had a nice swimming pool to keep my lap swimming going. My entry fee was waved as I didn’t have cash and no efrpos available, so I better make a donation on behalf of the pool. 6 km down, 19 to go!

We’re swimming to save lives



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, we’re swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need.

By sponsoring our 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.

Our Impact

So far this year we helped provide...

449

Young people with vital mental health support.

Thank you to our Sponsors
