Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because too many young and beautiful lives are lost due to not having enough accessible support. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming. As a mum of two teenagers, this is never far from my mind, and I hope that all kids can get the support they truly need.
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.
