I'm swimming to save lives
- This is my first year diving
- in for youth mental health
Did you know suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia?
That means that each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.
This March, I'm swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need.
By sponsoring my challenge, you’ll be helping to prevent youth suicide.
All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.
First Day First Swim!
800M down… only 4.2km to go!!!
I'm swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need. One of the people I love the most struggles daily with mental illness and being by their side for all of my life has been the most rewarding and devastating experience. The system is flawed, making it so much harder for people who already struggle with reaching out to ask for help.
Any donation is greatly appreciated, no matter how big or small. It's a contribution and an acknowledgment that we are in this fight together. Please donate 💛💛
Thank you
