I have embarked on an intensive training course for a 135km trek in WA this March. This will be a challenging five days both physically and mentally and is all in the name of raising funds for a cause close to my heart – the LifeChanger Foundation.
The driving force behind the vision for LifeChanger comes from an alarming set of statistics;
• Youth suicide is the number 1 killer of young Australians;
• 1 in 6 kids (7 - 15 yrs) has been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder;
• 1 teenager in every classroom has a gambling addiction;
• 1 in 4 leave the education system prematurely;
• 50% increase in hospital admissions because of children self-harming between 2010 and 2015;
• 1 in 5 kids have deliberately sniffed inhalants (12 - 17 yrs);
• 38% of adolescents consume alcohol weekly (14+ yrs);
• 50% of teenagers experience cyber bullying;
• 1 in 4 kids are overweight or obese (5 - 17 yrs).
Not one of these statistics is improving. Not one.
The LifeChanger Foundation is on an epic mission to turn these stats around and create a generational shift in society. LifeChanger believes that by providing young Australians with the tools to develop a positive self-identity they will be empowered to live their best life.
LifeChanger is a place where youth can find and explore ways to maximise their unlimited potential.
