Blue Mountains SES β Swimming for Strength
Did you know that suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia? As emergency responders, we see firsthand the impact that mental health challenges can have on individuals, families, and communities.
This March, the Blue Mountains SES team is taking on Laps for Life to raise awareness and funds for youth mental health. Just like in emergencies, every second countsβand every dollar raised can help provide life-saving support for young people in crisis.
By sponsoring our challenge, you're helping to ensure that no young person has to face their struggles alone. Together, we can make waves for mental health and help build a stronger, more resilient future.
Our Impact
So far this year we helped provide...

593
Young people with vital mental health support.
