Why I swim
Hey everyone! My reason for swimming with laps to life is due to there being so many life’s lost to suicides every year. I’ve lost many close to me from suicide and I’m hoping that with everybody we can hope to change that as much as possible. ^(‘ . ‘)^
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.
