I'm swimming to save lives
- This is my fifth year diving
- in for youth mental health
This is my fifth year diving in for Laps for Life and supporting young Australians and their mental health. This is an important initiative for me, as a high school teacher, and one that I enjoy participating in. Movement is a huge part of my mental health, particularly movement in the water. I know I need to move to keep mentally healthy so I understand how crucial this fundraiser is. 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.
