Why I swim
This April, I’m swimming with a purpose that’s deeply close to my heart. Too many young lives are being lost to suicide, and it’s something we can’t afford to ignore. Every lap I swim is for the young people who feel overwhelmed, unheard, or alone. It’s for those silently battling their thoughts and searching for a safe place to turn—a place where they can feel supported, understood, and reminded that they matter. By supporting this, you’re not just backing a swim—you’re helping create hope, connection, and a lifeline for someone who truly needs it. If this message speaks to you, please help me spread the word. Share this, talk about it, and stand with me. And if you can, join the cause—whether it’s through donating, participating, or simply showing support. Together, we can make sure no young person feels like they have to face their darkest moments alone. 💙
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.
