This morning, a few of us from zero2hero (Olivia, Oscar and Bradd) joined the Chilling With Mates crew for their daily 6:30am ocean dip at Brighton Beach... and yep, it was freezing.

But here’s the thing: they’ve been doing this every single morning since the start of winter. And they’ll be in that water every day until winter ends.

Why?

Because they’re raising funds (and awareness) for youth mental health through zero2hero.

Because they believe in connection. In showing up for your mates.

And because sometimes the coldest mornings bring out the warmest hearts.

This group of everyday legends has created something powerful: a space where anyone can show up, shake off the stress, and start the day with purpose (and a whole lot of goosebumps).

If you want to support what they’re doing connect with for all the details or go to their fundraising page at mycause.com.au/page/372941/chilling-with-mates

Even better come down and try it yourself!!

Thanks to Chilling With Mates for not just backing zero2hero but for being the kind of community that lives the message: you’re never alone.

Every child deserves to feel like they belong, to grow their confidence, and to feel truly connected to those around them.

This article really resonated with us. It highlights what we see every day. When young people feel safe, valued, and supported, they thrive – both at school and in life.

At zero2hero, we’re passionate about building pathways that put wellbeing first. Because every young person deserves the chance to flourish💛

Education facilitates a critical stage in a young person’s development and has a significant influence on Western Australian culture, but many students are walking away from school.
