The fun never stopped on Sunday 9th October when all three Calderdale pools opened their doors to swimmers of all ages and abilities, keen to swim and fundraise for Healthy Minds. Our fabulous swimmers chose their pool, chose their distance and pledged their fundraising target. On the day, we couldn’t have been prouder, everyone dived right in and heroically faced their challenge.
Thank you to all who joined us on World Suicide Prevention Day at Dean Clough to create a moving artwork: 257 handmade lanterns, each representing someone who died by suicide in the latest year of registered deaths (2023). We lit each of these lanterns in the knowledge that even a single death is already one too many.
