Why I swim
I'm swimming this March due to the large amounts of young lives lost to Suicide. I swim in honor of my friends & family whom have committed suicide especially those within the last 12 months, I aim to create a safer space four youth to turn to when life feels overwhelming, further aiming to spread the word to highlight the importance of mental wellbeing amongst young people, specifically within rural regions.
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.
