Help me reach my goal of $1,000

Why I swim

I’m swimming this March because too many young lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming.

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.

`BIG THANK TO ALL MY SPONSORS - got to $1000
Wow!  Today I've achieved my goal and raised just over $1000!!! Thank you to all my friends for their support and generous donations.  I know there are a few more yet to donate so I hope that I could raise $1500! That would be so awesome!
I also swam 10 more laps than usual today and my legs and arms and whole body is feeling it.  My pledge is to swim 20kms in March.  To break it down, i would need to swim 5 kms a week, thats about 32 laps each time,  3 times a week.  I feel that is achievable but I may have to give up one  Pilates Class to allow time to recover. 
I also got a pair of short flippers! Why didn't i get it sooner!?  Sorry, i don't have photos to post as yet but maybe I'll post something soon.
