I'm swimming to save lives

  • 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 mental health

I’m swimming 25 laps a day for Laps for Life to help raise awareness for mental health. By supporting ReachOut Australia, I hope to encourage young people facing challenges to access the support they need. Every lap is a small way to contribute to a bigger cause.
