I'm taking the plunge for a great cause: better mental health for everyone in Calderdale!

My aim is to swim 100m for every year of my life, so that'll be 5,400m (216 lengths)

I am happy to provide signed photo's of me in swim gear for any donations over £54... so bear that once in a lifetime treat in mind when considering your donation

Having suffered significant mental health issues over the years, I know how important this fundraising is and would like to give something back for all the incredible support I have received in Calderdale over the years

Please donate and help support Healthy Minds' brilliant work.

The fundraising swim will take place at 2 PM on October 6th all across the borough - at Brighouse, Sowerby Bridge and Todmorden pools. Come and cheer me on!

Healthy Minds provide high-quality mental health services to individuals and families in Calderdale. They promote awareness and reduce stigma by partnering with local organisations, and providing education and resources that empower people to take control of their mental health.
