My "Laps for Life" Story.

111km; $1000 NOW $2000 (GOAL INCREASED!🫶🤩🙏)

One Mind, One Heart, One Vision

"It's not what is "wrong" with me, it's what "happened" to me."

Now more than ever, we need to acknowledge the real "pandemic" in Australia; youth suicide. 
How did young Aussie lives turn from a need for utmost duty and caring to a "duty of care"?

We simply cannot allow ourselves to become a nation who prides itself on check-listing the vulnerabilities and emotional wellbeing of human lives, young Aussie Lives.

It is OK to identify as "suicidal". It is OK to feel overwhelmed. It is OK to feel anxious and barely able to breathe. It is OK to not even know why....but...It is not OK to say nothing.

If we can teach our kids they can be anything in life, why not teach them to just "Bee Kind".

My story isn't over yet;
