Why I swim
I swim for my young family, because they deserve a dad who looks after both his body and his mind. I also swim for my grandad — my role model, who taught me resilience, kindness, and the importance of showing up. Swimming helps me reset mentally and reminds me why mental health matters.
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.
