Why I'm swimming 20km in March
My nephew, Willy, sadly died by suicide in October 2023. Willy struggled with mental health issues for a very long time. He didn’t get the help he so desperately needed.
Would Willy still be here today if he had received the right help and support? I believe so.
That’s why I’m going to swim 20km during the month of March. I’m looking for as many sponsors as I can get, to give as much money as they can give. Because I want to see more support available for young people who are finding life difficult and struggling with mental health issues.
Challenge accepted. Bring it on.
Kez.
