Swimming in the Ocean Every Day For a Year

$2,005 of $2,000 goal

Swimming in the ocean every day for a year to raise funds for the mental health foundation.

Wellington

From January 12th 2024 until January 12th 2025 I will be swimming in the ocean every single day to fundraise for the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. The vast majority of these swims will be completed at Island Bay, and it is going to be cold. No wetsuits.

However, sometimes reaching the ocean will be impossible and a cold natural body of water (river or lake) will suffice.

One in five of us will face mental health challenges this year but with the right support, people can and do recover. Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand's mission is to improve the mental health and wellbeing of all New Zealanders, and the funds I raise will support their mahi to do this.

You know, my father used to say, whatever you do, do it 100%. When you work, work. When you laugh, laugh. When you eat, eat like it's your last meal.
