Background

Hi I’m Jude! I’m the founder and director of Sounddelivery Media, a charity close to my heart that works tirelessly to amplify the underrepresented voices of those with lived experience and challenge social issues through diverse media representation.

This year, I’ve taken on my biggest challenge yet - training for a 10k swim - I have no idea how long it will take me. My goal is to have achieved this swim challenge in 2025 and I’ve signed up to the Best Fest 10k in Majorca at the end of May. It’s a huge challenge and I’m committed to the training and making the vision a reality.

More about the charity

At Sounddelivery Media, we collaborate with community leaders and their networks to ensure lived experience and voices are at the heart of policy and practice change. We strive to instil lived experience and individuals’ voices in everything we do, and work towards greater representation and diversity in the voices heard in the media. Through storytelling, media training, and advocacy, we help them share their stories with confidence and impact, giving them the tools to create change and support others.

By supporting this fundraiser, you’ll be directly helping us to:

- Expand our programmes and reach even more people.

- Provide more media training and storytelling opportunities.

- Empower individuals to make their voices heard in ways that transform systems, challenge stereotypes, and inspire change.

Every donation–big or small–will make a massive difference. It will also give me an extra push during my swim training throughout the winter and those tough final lengths of the swim!

So, if you’re able, we would greatly appreciate a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal. And if you can’t donate right now, sharing this page with your networks would still be a huge help.

Thank you so much for your support,

Jude Habib
