The Ride for Youth raises funds for Youth Focus and every dollar raised goes directly to Youth Focus to assist in providing its counselling services free of charge to vulnerable young people in Western Australia. These services are aimed at supporting young people and their families to overcome the issues associated with suicide, depression and self harm.
Around one in 35 young Australians aged 4-17 experience a
depressive disorder. Suicide is the biggest killer of young Australians and accounts
for the deaths of more young people than car accidents. The number of deaths by suicide in young Australians is the highest it has been in 10 years.
Any support you are able to offer helps to make a difference
