Laps for Life raises funds and awareness for young people in Australia living with mental health difficulties and to help prevent youth suicide.
Ian Thorpe AM, Patron and Board Member of Australia’s most accessed online mental health service for young people, ReachOut, is calling on people across Australia to jump in the water in March for Laps for Life – a month-long swimming challenge.
Swimming NSW clubs and members are invited to dive in to support youth mental health. An exciting prize is up for grabs for the club who tops the fundraising tally (per head)!
Laps for Life is open to everyone across Australia and is simple to take part in. You can get involved by visiting the Swimming NSW Laps for Life registration page to register a personal or club (team) swimming challenge and fundraise for youth mental health. Participants set their own lap or distance goal and then dive on in. Whether you’re swimming in a pool or getting out into the ocean, you can record your progress by logging your laps.
The prize on offer to the Swimming NSW club that fundraises the most money on a per participant average during this challenge is a FREE Swim League event run at a location near you, exclusively for your club and its members!
