Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because youth mental health is deeply personal to me. I’ve struggled with suicidal thoughts and came close to losing my life, so I know how heavy that darkness can feel and how important support is. No one should have to face those battles alone. I’m diving in to raise awareness, start conversations, and help ensure young people can access the support they need when they need it most. Every lap is for hope, for recovery, and for anyone who feels like they’re fighting their battles in silence.
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.
