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? Each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.

This March, I will do my part in raising funds by swimming to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need. I am to swim 20km within the month (outside of my normal training) and would be grateful if you would consider sponsoring my challenge in coming alongside me in 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.
