COLD Nips, Australia's leading community movement for mental health, announces its nation-wide tour aimed at fostering mental wellbeing and community engagement.
From August 2 to November 9, the Cold Nips team are underway on an unprecedented 100-day journey across Australia's beaches, partnering with the Happiness Co Foundation to raise $1 million for mental health initiatives and dip thousands of people.
This tour is not just a physical challenge, it's a movement to ignite conversations about mental health and wellbeing across the nation. This journey spans thousands of kilometres with dips in every single state and territory, beginning in Cairns and ending where it all began five years ago, in Perth WA.
On Tuesday, September 17 from 6:15am, the Cold Nips team will be taking over Inverloch Beach – from the Inverloch Yacht Club launching ramp carpark for a sunrise ocean plunge followed by a connection and post-dip sip session all for mental health. This event is donation-based and inclusive with an open invitation to the local community from children to the elderly.
Cold Nips is an Australia-wide community movement and not-for-profit instrumental in creating positive community impact. Julian Pace Founder and Director of Happiness Co Foundation expresses his gratitude being chosen as the tour’s charity partner.
“I’m so excited for this and also just so grateful from the bottom of my heart. Helping people is at the core of what we do, who we are, and Cold Nips support means the world to us”. The Happiness Co Foundation, shares Cold Nips commitment to mental wellbeing, striving to positively impact 10 million lives within a decade.
Jian, Cold Nips Co-founder and Director, emphasises the tour's mission: "We aim to break barriers and ignite conversations about mental health through the power of community, connection and nature."
There are countless studies done of how rising early, starting your day in nature, surrounded by a community and plunging in the ocean benefits our mental health. However, Cold Nips believes the real proof is seen in their last five years of operation and the impact on thousands of Australians lives.
