Laps For Life♡

  • This is my second year diving

  • in for youth mental health

This March, I’ll be swimming 20km with Laps for Life, just as I did last year. I swim in honour of my sister, who swam to raise funds a few years ago and inspires me everyday. Every lap I complete is not just for the challenge, but for mental health awareness and suicide prevention – causes that are close to heart.

I was incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support I received last year. Your generosity and encouragement truly made a difference, both in helping me feel supported and funding life-saving initiatives by ReachOut.  

Together, we can create ripples of hope that spread far beyond the pool. Thank you again for your kindness and belief in this cause!
