Support my swim for youth mental health

I'm taking part in the LAP it UP swim challenge to raise awareness and funds for Live4Life’s mental health education and youth suicide prevention model.

Live4Life builds the capacity of young people to recognise, seek and offer help for mental health concerns and it also builds the capacity of the whole community to look after and support their young people.

It engages young people, school staff, parents, carers and the broader community in evidence-based mental health education.

Please support my LAP it UP swim challenge - your donation will help more young people to receive vital mental health education and will help save lives!

Thank you

My Updates

For Uncle Eldon

Monday 15th Sep
In the month of October, I have taken on the challenge of swimming 100,000m in 28 days. 

Mental health struggles can often be invisible and indiscriminate in who it can affect. By sharing my swim, I hope to honour the memory of my Uncle Eldon, who sadly took his own life having struggled with depression. 

This month is for raising awareness, sparking conversations, listening and supporting those in our life we love.

Every lap is for him - and to anyone to has ever felt that they were swimming alone.

Ill be sharing updates along the way if you'd like to follow my progress or support the cause. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
