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.
Swimming is great for your mental health so I'm inviting friends to join me on my swims and sharing photos of all the great pools I visit along the way.
