Why I swim

I’m swimming this March because my own mental health sucked all the joy out of my own swimming journey. As an adult, now learning to fall back in love with the sport & having battled my own mental health challenges - this is a cause very close to my heart. Please don’t underestimate how much a little of your charity will help, lives are absolutely saved by organisations such a ReachOut. Check in with yourself, check in with your loved ones, your friends, coworkers, neighbours, uber drivers, baristas, and anyone else in your life you interact with. I love you all!! Enjoy my suffering this March xx

Swimmer

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.
