Why I swim
This March, I’m swimming 30km because too many young lives are lost to suicide. 30 kilometres. Countless laps. One goal — to help create a safe place for young people to turn when life feels overwhelming. If you can, please get behind me. Every bit of support helps make sure no young person feels like they have to face it alone. Let’s make these laps count. 💙
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.
