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 am currently in my final year of uni studying a Bachelor of Social work and I’m passionate about youth mental health. I have experience in this area in my job and believe this is an important area to raise money for. Please donate even if it’s a dollar, anything will help. A lot of the young people coming through have significant financial issues and this service will help to provide them with free mental health care.
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.
