Team: Team fundraising for The Max Windle Memorial Trust

In memory of Max Windle

Great North Swim 2026 · 12 June 2026 ·

This Trust has been set up in memory of Max Windle who sadly passed away in January 2021 at the age of 16. The trust will support both local and national charities which focus on improving mental health, including depression, anxiety and suicide prevention, in children and young adults.

Story

Hello,

On the 12th - 14th June, a team of 30 will be swimming in Lake Windermere as part of the Great North Swim Charity event. We will be raising money for MWMT which focuses on supporting young people’s mental health. We are swimming in memory of Max, who tragically took his own life at the age of 16 after struggling with his mental health.

This will be the first time I’ll be tackling a 10km open water swim and it’s amazing to be doing it to raise money for such a great cause.

I really appreciate any support you can give. This will help the charity continue to support young people with their mental health.

Thanks so much,

Lauren
