2025 I'm still 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 again 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.

1 March 2025, Get in - get wet - get out

Heading to the pool today for day 1, target is only 500 meters - get in -  get wet - get out

Proud to update my fundraising target today from $300 to $400 - because I had met the $300 target and needed to review it :) 

Really chuffed to see new members who have joined  the team!
