Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because all young Australians deserve to feel heard and supported through mental health challenges. Every dollar raised will support Reach Out's vital work and go to services that directly help young people. I found swimming during a rough period in my own mental health journey and it has been transformative in helping me find clarity and strength when I needed it most.
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.
