Why I swim
I’m swimming again this March to remember Kwajo, and because I hope that every dollar I raise will help keep one young person in the world, who might otherwise have given up.
I'm swimming to save lives
It's almost seven years since Kwajo died and this is my sixth year of Laps for life. I've raised over $12,000 since 2020 and I hope you'll support me in swimming another 20+ Ks to raise more $$$ this year.Â
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.
