Why I swim
Im swimming this march to support youth mental health. Even 1 life lost to suicide is too much. People I know have struggled with mental health and I want to make an impact in honour of them. There should be support in place for young people and our mental health should be safeguarded.
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.
