Why I swim
I’m doing this because too many young lives are lost to suicide. Every lap I swim will help make sure there’s a safe place for young people to turn when life feels 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 a lot of kids (over a million) are not getting the support they need. Not adults. Kids.
ReachOut provides anonymous, free and 100% online services so they can find a safe place to connect, share and get help when life feels overwhelming.
I’m gunna be swimming 10km this month (not at once, I’m not as stupid as I look) to try and raise some $$.
If you're up for it, donate and help more young people get the support they need. No pressure, no guilt trip, that’s not my jam.
