My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

Hello everyone,
My name’s Nelson, and this November I’m taking on a challenge which means the world to me.
Six months ago, I lost my father to suicide. Like so many men, he fought through silent battles which too often go unseen. I’ve faced my own struggles with mental health, and I know how heavy those days can feel. But I’ve also learned that talking, moving, and supporting one another can truly save lives.
My dad was a sailor, so the sea is where I’ll honour him.
This Movember, I’m swimming 60 km in 30 days — one kilometre for every man lost to suicide every hour.
If you can, please donate or share to help us make a difference. Every contribution, and every plunge into the sea helps shine a light for those still fighting.

Let’s make waves for men’s mental health.
Let’s talk, swim, and stand together because no man should have to face his battles alone.

Thank you,
Nelson

Bonjour à tous,
Je m’appelle Nelson et ce mois de novembre, je relève un défi qui me tient à cœur.

Il y a six mois, j’ai perdu mon père par suicide. Comme tant d’hommes, il menait des combats silencieux. Aujourd’hui, je veux transformer cette douleur en action.
