Why I swim
I’m swimming this March to raise awareness for youth mental health and youth suicide prevention. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn to when life feels overwhelming.
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.

Well done Grace. Our son (now 31) was bullied at school and suicidal for several years and only now beginning to thrive, but we so very nearly last him several times. This is $10 for each of our children xx
