    Hey everyone,

    After rolling my ankle back in April, I’d been holding onto the hope of getting back out there to complete the Skate Up NZ trip. Unfortunately, with some changes in circumstances, it’s become clear that I won’t be able to make that happen.

    It’s definitely not the outcome either of us hoped for, but I’m really grateful for everyone who believed in this idea and showed so much support along the way. Every message, donation, and bit of encouragement has meant more than I can say.

    All funds raised have gone directly to I Am Hope, so even though the trip couldn’t go ahead, your kindness is still helping make a real impact for mental health in New Zealand.

    Thank you all again for being part of this it truly means a lot.

    With appreciation,

    Ben

    We have just completed our first ever event - Snags and skates at Washington skatepark and it was a huge success!, we raised over $600 thanks to all of the kind donors and fellow skateboarders who came together to kick this whole thing off. All the love and support from the Christchurch skate community has been incredible.
