Why I’m Sweating with Pride

I’m taking on Sweat with Pride this June to raise money for our Rainbow communities! 🌈

Our schools, workplaces, and doctors’ offices are still not safe places for many Rainbow New Zealanders and it’s putting lives at risk.

Our statistics around mental health distress, substance use, and suicidal ideation are really rough for our communities. The mahi of Burnett Foundation Aotearoa, OutLine, RainbowYOUTH, and InsideOUT Kōaro is vital in trying to shift the needle on these stats.

So, this June I’m fighting discrimination with perspiration, and I've committed to exercising for at least 21 minutes EVERY DAY to raise money to support our Rainbow communities.

This cause means a lot to me. Every dollar I raise will fund life-changing mental, physical and sexual health services for Rainbow New Zealanders.

Thank you so much e te whānau ❤️

My Updates

Tawatawa Reserve

Saturday 1st Jun

Wellington welcomed June with a classic windy day so I got a bit windblasted walking to the water reservoir in Tawatawa Reserve! I met many good dogs though, and it was a good start to my goals with the walk clocking in at an hour :))
