Why I swim
Every day an Australian youth commits suicide. I am swimming this March for every life lost and everyone still fighting. I am swimming so no one feels alone, unsupported and insignificant. Every lap I swim and each dollar you donate goes towards making sure there’s a safe place for our young people to turn to when they need it most.
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.
