Why I swim
I’m swimming this March for everyone I love that has ever struggled with their mental health. I've seen and felt firsthand what a difference that support can make to people who need it, as both a measure of prevention and treatment for mental illness. I'm swimming to help provide that support for as many people as possible, for young people, their friends, families and communities, for the hope that one day it will be available to anyone who wants or needs it. I'm swimming this month with my best friend for our friends, as well as for my beautiful girlfriend and for a younger version of myself. I love you all 💗💗
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.
