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

WHY
Sunday 21st SepI am participating in the Lap it Up Challenge with the goal of swimming 1,000 laps to raise $1,000 for youth mental health.
Why am I doing this?
Firstly, I have been a teacher for eight years and have seen firsthand the effects that poor mental health can have on young people. Today’s youth face challenges very different from those I experienced growing up—social media, constant comparisons with others, and the pressure to always be “on” make it a much tougher environment.
Secondly, I have faced my own battle with mental health, which led to alopecia and, in turn, made the situation even harder. Life changes and things not going to plan were struggles for me, but I have recently learned strategies to cope—one of the most powerful being exercise.
Finally, I chose this challenge because swimming is something I am not good at and, truthfully, something I do not enjoy. That’s exactly why it’s meaningful. Proving to myself that I can push through this will be a huge personal triumph in my own mental health journey, while also raising vital funds to support others.
