Why I swim
At times life can feel overwhelming, and many teens are feeling that pressure more than ever. Suicide remains the leading cause of death for young Australians aged 15–24, which is why support matters. I’m swimming this March to help keep free mental health support available so they don’t have to face it alone. Every bit of support makes a difference.
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.
