💦 85 Days, 85 Dips – Because Life Really Is Better By the Water! 💦

After proudly supporting Berkshire Youth as a Trustee, it's time for me to bid farewell after a year now living in Devon. But before I go, I wanted to make a splash – quite literally – in honour of Berkshire Youth’s 85th anniversary!

So here’s the plan:

🌊 I’ll be getting into water every day for 85 days in a row from August into October – whether it’s the sea, a lake, lido, river, paddling pool or even a very cold bath – to raise money for this incredible charity.

Why?

Because the work Berkshire Youth does to support, inspire and empower young people in our communities is nothing short of vital.

They’ve been changing lives for 85 years, and I want to help make sure they can keep going strong for many more. Youth funding has been slashed repeatedly and is in total crisis; organisations like Berkshire Youth can only survive with the support of communities.

This challenge will involve a mental commitment from me more than anything else to get into the water whatever the weather, however I’m feeling and whatever else my commitments are that day. I know the work that the team at Berkshire Youth do every day and it’s a privilege to help.

I’d be so grateful if you could support me with a donation – big, small, or just a cheer on social media – every little bit helps young people in Berkshire get the opportunities, support and guidance they deserve.

Let’s celebrate 85 incredible years – and help shape an even brighter future. And if you fancy joining me for a dip, you know where to find me (probably shivering on a beach or by a lake somewhere 😅).

Thank you! 💙
