Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because mum and I both loved to swim. She taught me how valuable it is for both my mental and physical health. Swimming with mum was a safe space for me and I am raising money to help all young people have a place they can turn to when they need.
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.
