Why I swim
Swimming in memory of my Poppa and my cousin, who both faced battles with mental health. Experiencing the impact of mental health within my own family showed me just how important accessible, well-funded mental health support truly is. Taking part in Laps for Life is a small way to honour them and contribute to something that supports people 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.
