Follow the Black Line to Beat the Black Dog

Following the black line to beat the black dog



We are swimming to make a real difference in such a critical issue in our society. Our young people are faced with challenges that those born last century never had to deal with. As a result 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.

We're taking part in Laps for Life to make sure these vital services are always there and at the same time invest in our workplace and community by coming together to each week to swim, share a coffee and have a laugh. 

Please donate to our fundraiser and help more young people get the support they deserve.

Our Impact
