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.

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou to everyone!! I’m so thankful that you are all supporting me to reach my goal because swimming used to be my preferred meditation/exercise but haven’t done it for years. It used to be my way of destressing and made things feel like they’d be ok when I was in a hard place as a young person. So doing this challenge is a way to connect in with the memories of my younger self, and the knowledge that I got through it, and that’s my hope for all young folk … but I am going to start training now so in march I can reach my target!!
