Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because I know how difficult it can be for young people to find the right mental health support when they need it most. As I work my way back from serious injury, swimming has become my way of supporting my own mental health while helping ReachOut continue their life-saving work. Every kilometre is for connection, support, and hope.
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.
