Why I swim
Im swimming 2ks for youth suicide. As someone who has struggled with mental health issues from a young age, lived everyday not thinking ill be alive the next day and had my mother walking in on me attempting. I know what its like to feel hopeless and not worthy of living. So each lap I complete will be dedicated for todays youth that are struggling with similar issues as myself or even unique experiences!
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.
