Swimming for Hope!!

I am fundraising for 'I am Hope', a mental health charity for young people in NZ. While mental health struggles are not new, they are new to young people. The charity works to deliver mental health education in language they understand, from people they can relate to.

Every child deserves to grow up feeling happy, safe and supported!!

Swimming to me is a form of therapy, its where I go to think but also to escape, Swimming, like all exercise, releases endorphins in your brain. I love to swim but I have been lacking a challenge or something to focus my energy on.

So, I will be participating in the Ocean Swim FIJI on the 20th - 22nd of May 2025.

Completing 3 x 3km swims (over 3 days) around the islands of Fiji.

This will be a big challenge for me as I usually just swim every few days and do between 800-1200m in a pool.

Thank you for reading my page and supporting this charity!!
