Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because I want to raise awareness and support for youth mental health. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people and their carers to turn when life feels overwhelming.
I'm swimming to raise awareness and improve resources available to support youth mental health
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 and their carers 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.
