Why I swim
Too many young people are struggling silently with their mental health. I’m swimming in Laps for Life to help change that. Every lap I swim is for a young person who feels overwhelmed, alone, or unsure where to turn. Your donation helps fund lifesaving youth mental health services and ensures more young people can access support 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.
