We are thrilled to share the fantastic news that our incredible 1st team of swimmers completed their swim overnight in an astonishing 11 hours and 10 minutes!

Team Swim Shady, comprising of Ben, Hayden, Niamh, and Bridie, set off at 10:30 PM on Saturday 20th July 2024 and arrived in France on Sunday (21st July) morning. Their dedication, endurance, and teamwork have culminated in a truly remarkable achievement. We couldn’t be prouder of them!

This impressive feat isn’t just about the swim. Both teams have already helped raise nearly £7,000 to support the work we do at Young Minds Matter. Their commitment to this cause is inspiring, and their efforts are making a real difference in the lives of many.

But the journey doesn’t stop here. Our second team of swimmers, Jellyfish Jamboree, are geared up to take on the challenge week commencing 22nd July 2024. We’re excited to support them and witness another incredible effort all in aid of YMM.

We invite you to join us in supporting these amazing youngsters. Every donation counts and goes a long way in providing vital mental health services. Please visit the link to donate: https://www.justgiving.com/page/young-minds-matter-channelswim2024.

Once again, a massive congratulations to Team Swim Shady and a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported and donated so far. Let’s keep the momentum going!
