Story
Hi guys,
I'm diving into the deep end and fundraising for a cause that's close to myself and my family’s heart.
This summer I have joined the amazing social ocean swimming group Babewatch, a group that brings people together in an active and social way. Over summer we will be participating in a number of ocean swims and raising money for Batyr, an organisation that aims to get young people to have a positive conversation about mental health. Our aim is to raise awareness of the stigma against mental health and to help young people get the confidence to talk about ‘the elephant in the room’.
Swimming has been a big love of mine for years and I’m so glad I can use it to help raise awareness for something that means a lot to me.
I’d appreciate any contribution, big or small.
Thanks so much for your support!

batyr
Despite 1 in 4 young people suffering a mental health issue by the end of adolescence, mental health issues are not openly discussed and remain the ‘elephant in the room’. Of every 30 students in Australia, seven will be dealing with a mental health issue, yet only two will reach out for support, leaving five suffering in silence. Sadly, most young people dealing with mental health issues do not reach out for help, largely due to stigma. batyr is a for purpose preventative mental health organisation, created and driven by young people, for young people.
We reduce the stigma surrounding mental ill health and empower young people to reach out for support. We help create communities that support young people’s mental health and wellbeing. batyr's vision is a world where all young people are engaged in positive conversations about mental health and empowered to reach out for support when needed. We do this by engaging young peopleto talk about mental health and wellbeing. Educating through the sharing of young people’s lived experience stories and empowering young people by giving them the knowledge and skills to lead mentally healthy lives.
