Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because mental health matter, because there a million reasons to not join in, but I found at least one, me/you/my dad/ my brothers/ my sisters and all those people who need me in their lives. Because I need them in mine. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for people to turn when life feels to much, like they are alone and it all just too overwhelming.
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.
