Why I swim

I'm Swimming this March because I’m passionate about supporting kids facing depression, mental health challenges, and youth suicide. Through this swim, I’m raising funds and awareness, hoping to spark conversations, inspire support, and remind young people that their lives matter. Every lap is a step toward hope and real change. Please donate and help me reach my goal!

Swimmer

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.
