Social Mobility through Sport | Up for Discussion with Splash
Description
Nearly 50% of Hong Kong can’t swim. Which is why programmes like Splash are needed in our community. In this episode of CB Up for Discussion, we're excited to welcome Simon Holliday, co-founder of the Splash programme, and Daisy Luscaw, a senior swim coach who has transitioned from participant to leader.
Splash is more than just a swimming initiative; it’s a transformative programme that empowers marginalized communities, particularly migrant domestic workers in Hong Kong. Through swimming, participants not only gain essential life skills but also build confidence, social connections, and a sense of belonging.
Join us as Simon and Daisy share their personal journeys and the impact of Splash on mental well-being and social mobility. We’ll discuss:
The significance of swimming as a life skill and its implications for social mobility
The holistic benefits of physical activity on mental health
Inspiring success stories from participants who have found community and purpose through Splash
This episode is a celebration of resilience, connection, and the ripple effects that come from creating inclusive spaces. Tune in to discover how we can all contribute to a healthier, more supportive community!
