I'm swimming to save lives

  • This is my second 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.

Hi Dee you gave a donation towards my nationals two years ago. Was very nice of you to do that. So one deserves another and next year. I’ll be doing the starlight foundation Super Swim challenge swim again. I didn’t reach my target this year donation but I did in Swimming. Kind regards, Primrose Ritchie.
