LEAD WITH PURPOSE
Swim to save lives
ONE TEAM. ONE COMMUNITY. ONE BIG SPLASH.
Laps for Life is an easy way to support your team's wellbeing while helping young people in Australia get mental health support. Swim 2km, 20km or a distance of your choice across March, and our team will be here every lap of the way.
START THE CONVERSATION ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH
Taking part shows your people that wellbeing matters at your workplace. It's a natural way to talk about looking after your mind and checking in on each other.
BRING YOUR PEOPLE TOGETHER
Friendly competition and shared goals connect people across teams, locations and roles, including people who don't usually work together.
A WELLBEING INITIATIVE THAT RUNS ITSELF
No big budget or event planning needed. Register your workplace, invite your team, and everyone swims when it suits them.
EVERYONE CAN TAKE PART
All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Staff can swim solo on their own schedule, join a group session at the local pool, or do a bit of both. It works for office, hybrid and remote teams.
MAKE A REAL IMPACT TOGETHER
Every lap and dollar your team raises helps ReachOut support young people's mental health, giving your workplace a community cause to rally behind.
TAKING PART AS A WORKPLACE
Swimming together is a great way to build team spirit and support young people’s mental health. Workplaces can create a team page, fundraise together, and compete on the workplace leaderboard.
