According to the World Health Organization (WHO) as of March 2025 More than 720 000 people will die due to suicide every year. Suicide is the third leading cause of death among 15–29-year-olds.
Suicide Prevention, as difficult as it is, must be a conversation we have to continue to have. Let's not stay silent. Have conversations like this. Lean into others. You are loved. People do care.
On the 11th anniversary of my Australian Triathlon Teammate, Jackie Fairweather ( nee Gallagher) 10 November 1967 - 1 November 2014, I feel it is important we continue to celebrate this extraordinary athlete and remind all athletes you are more than your sport, and that help is available if you need it.
If you need support please reach out call or text 988, worldwide crisis text line 741-741. To my fellow Australians back home call lifeline - 13 11 14.
