Peter CROTTI

I'm swimming to save the lives of Young People.

  • This is my third year diving

  • in for youth mental health

Much of my work life was in Youth Work and teaching.  Although I was never a swimmer, before I joined Laps For Life, I was very moved when I heard an interview with Ian Thorpe, the patron of this group. This is my third year of diving in for young people, and it helps me as well to know that I can still contribute in this way. 

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.
