Why I swim
As someone who has experienced suicide within my own personal and work family, I know the heartbreak it leaves behind. The shock, the unanswered questions, and the quiet moments where you wonder if there was something more you could have done. I can only begin to imagine how devastating it must be when it’s a young person, someone with so much life still ahead of them. No family should have to carry that pain alone. That’s why this cause means so much to me. These services provide support, hope, and sometimes even a lifeline when it’s needed most. If you’re able, please consider helping me reach my goal. Your support could make a real difference in a young person’s life, and in the lives of the families who love them. ❤️
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.

This speaks volume to your character, it takes one thing to do something hard for yourself, let alone doing something hard for others. You’re an inspiration and I’ll always be in your corner
