I'm swimming to save lives

  • This is my third year diving

  • in for youth mental health
Hello legends, it is your local swim noob here back for the third year.

I'm aiming to swim 5km in March for youth mental health as each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.

We're in a crisis and having been through a really awful time with my own brain I'm trying to raise as much money and awareness as possible for youth mental health. 

In 2022 we raised $777 and 2024 we raised $1,412. That means a total of $2,189 across the years! Thank you so much for your incredible support and encouragement :'-) I’m so grateful - really, thank you! 💐

It can feel hard to feel optimistic about the future for young people today but I'm swimming in hope for brighter futures and to help out young kids as much as I can <3

I swam 2km in 2022, just barely reached 4km in 2024 and this year I’m aiming for 5km - wish me bloody luck! 🤣

Ur local swim noob xx
