Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because too many young lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming.
Committed to Laps4Life - 20 laps = 1 km yesterday
Suicide remains the leading cause of death for young people in Australia.
Thank you very much Jamie Mills and Selena Harding for backing me already in this good cause. I did 1 km (20 laps) yesterday (training swim) as the real deal will run from March 1-31.
Your thoughtful donation will go towards the ReachOut services much needed to support kids experiencing mental health difficulties.
