Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because 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.
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.

My Updates
The home stretch!
1km swim right after XFit? Still nit sure it was a good idea, will sleep well tonight 😴 Heading into my last week and 16km/80% of my swim goal complete. Thank you everyone for your generosity, with just $55 remaining to reach my $2,000 fundraising goal, the number of young people who will be able to access mental wellbeing support through ReachOut is significant. You are truly appreciated! Share
