I'm swimming to save lives
- This is my first 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.
All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.
Cold morning
today it was particularly hard to get up and go, it was quite chilly, but I did get on that bike and cold wind was blowing all the way to the pool. To my surprise the pool temp had been increased by 0.5degrees. I managed an extra 2 lanes before my shoulder told me off.My Swim Progress
