Why I swim
I’m swimming this March because every time I look around there is something too big, or awful, or far away for me to make any difference in. I am hopeful that the money I raise makes a difference in someone's life and helps them to live well in their circumstances.
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.
