Why I swim
This March, I’m getting into a lap pool for the first time. I’m setting myself this challenge because youth mental health doesn’t feel like a statistic to me. It’s something I’ve seen up close within friends, family & my community over the years. So these laps are for them: for my people. They’re a reminder that they matter and that a community has their back
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.
