Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because too many young lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming.
I'm swimming to save lives
I am swimming 100km to support mental health resourcing and suicide prevention for Australia’s youth. Suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia - with more than 1 in 3 experiencing mental health difficulties. Despite these numbers, over a million are still not getting the support they need. That’s our mates, our family, us.
I’m taking part in Laps for Life to make sure these vital services are always there. Donating will support ReachOut and Laps For Life help more young people get the support they deserve and need.
