Support my swim for youth mental health

I'm swimming in the cold waters of North East Tasmania to raise awareness and funds for Youth Live4Life’s mental health education and youth suicide prevention model (Live4Life). 

Live4Life communities deliver Youth Mental Health First Aid training in schools and the wider community, help to lead conversations about mental health that reduce stigma, and promote young leaders as mental health ambassadors. 

Australia's suicide rate is 40% higher in rural over metropolitan areas. Please support my LAP it UP swim challenge - your donation can help to increase mental health knowledge among secondary school students, teachers, parents, carers and community members in rural and regional areas.

Thank you so much!

My Updates

LapitUp for Youth Live4Life and yourself!

Saturday 19th Oct
What an incredible undertaking so far! Raising money for young people and their mental health but realising that I have also improved my own mental wellbeing enourmosly by getting in the ocean!!! 
Living in the best place - doing the best work!

Time is getting away

Tuesday 15th Oct
I may have been slack updating the page but the waters have been kind both in temp and mind. Finding the balance for how long you can sustain exposure to cold water has been an interesting journey! 
20 minutes or less seems to be the ideal time. Prolonged times has meant I stay cold for the entire day following. But well worth it for a good cause!

October 7th - Reminded of the difference a few degrees make!

Tuesday 8th Oct
Into a very cold ocean. It was very calm water....which meant it was a really relaxing flounder about not being dunked by the waves and getting a brain freeze from the cold water! :D 

Day 6 - beautiful waters and a cool breeze

Monday 7th Oct
Taking it slower and focusing on the little things in light of this years Mental Health Week message - "Appreciate the little things."

Breathwork mixed with the sounds of the water make for a very peaceful and envigorating dip! 

5.10.24 - Still going strong

Sunday 6th Oct
Enjoying the ocean albeit fresh beyond words until your body adjusts! 
So grateful for the beautiful place in which I can call home. Thank you to the amazingly generous donors and the supportive words of encouragement. 
So good to be able to offer support to such a brilliant cause! 

October 2nd - Coldest one yet!

Thursday 3rd Oct
It was super chilly in the water but still so rewarding. Raising money for a good cause, looking after my own wellbeing and mental health while spending time with my son who is also braving the chill factor. Lucky he has a wetsuit hehe

DAY ONE!!!!! off and swimming!!

Tuesday 1st Oct
A cool evening with a stunning clear sky to welcome day one of the challenge.

Last dip before we kick off on Oct 1st

Tuesday 1st Oct
An evening swim in preparation for October 1st kick off! 

Day 2 pre October 1st

Sunday 29th Sep
Into another refreshing swim this morning - the sky was so magnificent as the sun lit up beneath the clouds 29.9.24

Preparing for the cold water swimming here we go!!!!

Sunday 29th Sep
28th September - what a ripper of a day here in North East Tas to take a plunge into the very fresh ocean and get ready for the October 1st kick off of the LapitUp Challenge!
