Hop into the lido, the lake or sea and swim for 35 minutes, 35 lengths, or 35km in June. On average, a woman is assaulted 35 times before the police are called. That's 35 too many. This June, swim for yourself, swim for survivors, swim for Solace.

Story

As part of InvestIN’s social impact board charity initiative, which brings attention to and fundraises for a different charity every month, I (Lilly, hi!!) have taken up the swimming for Solace challenge, with the goal of swimming 35km throughout the month of June.

On average, a woman is assaulted 35 times before the police are called. That's 35 too many. Domestic abuse is a cycle of behaviour and a cycle of violence. The repetition of events only makes it harder for someone to leave, get the help they need and the support they deserve. This June, you can help end this cycle.
