Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because I’ve sat with young people who felt alone and overwhelmed. Too many don’t know where to turn when things feel heavy. Swimming helps me slow down and reset. This month, I’m turning that into something that supports them too. Each lap is a small step toward making sure young people have a safe place to feel heard and supported.
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.
