Why I swim

I’m swimming this March because too many young lives are lost to suicide. I do also know what its like to struggle day in day out with depression as i struggled alot in which also lead me to trying to end my own life. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming and too much because theirs to many lives being lost to suicide

Swimmer

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.
