Why I swim

I’m swimming this March to honor the young lives we’ve lost to suicide and to support those who are struggling. Each lap I swim is a small step towards creating a safe and supportive space where young people can find hope and help when life feels too heavy.

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.
