Healthy Minds Radio takes a trip to Todmorden Sports Centre to talk to Nikki Stocks, a long time member of the Healthy Minds community and fundraising extraordinaire!
Nikki has been a victim of flooding in the Upper Calder Valley, causing her to struggle with stress and anxiety. While looking for strategies to support her mental health, Nikki found swimming helped to bring her into balance.
After benefitting from being involved in Healthy Minds services in Todmorden, Nikki found herself wanting to give something back to the charity, and the idea of a sponsored swim emerged...
On this episode of the show, we chat to Nikki and other guests about the upcoming Big Swim - a Calderdale-wide sponsored swim, inspired by Nikki's story, happening on Sunday 1st October 2023.
