I'm swimming to save lives and create mental health awareness

  • This is my first year diving

  • in for youth mental health

Did you know suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia?

That means that each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.

This March, I'm swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need.

By sponsoring my challenge, you’ll be helping to prevent youth suicide.

All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.

Swimming for a friend <3

I’m challenging myself to swim 2km for youth mental health this March.
I had the misfortune of losing a friend to suicide within the last year. Did you know that suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia? That means that each year, more young people in Australia die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer. But together, we can change that.
Please sponsor my participation in Laps for Life and provide young people across the country with the support they need to be happy and well. Simply click on the link below to make a donation through my page. Thank you so much for your support.
