Why I swim

This is the second year I will be doing Laps for Life because too many people drown deep in thought and are scared to talk about it. Being in your head is not a bad thing but when it eats your day-to-day routine in life, it gets hard to mask your emotions. I started Laps for Life because I myself was drowning. Had I not spoken about my confusion about why I feel 'nothing' or am not present when I speak to people, I would not be as present and confident in myself as I am today. Had I not shown my vulnerable side, I would not be brave enough to tackle anything else. I am swimming for everyone who couldn't make it out of the deep end and didn't have that last bit of help to reach out to someone to tell them that everything will be okay.

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.
