Kendall’s Sunrise Swimmers

We're participating in this year's DIY Big Freeze

We're fundraising for FightMND

My sister, Anne Sullivan, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) on 16 May 2025 and, heartbreakingly, passed away just four months later on 27 September 2025.


In Anne’s memory, we are proudly taking part in this year’s DIY Big Freeze to support FightMND and help defeat the Beast that is MND.

On Sunday, 28 June 2026, Kendall’s Sunrise Swimmers, family, friends and the Kiama community will come together, at Kendall’s Beach Kiama, for a morning of fun, fundraising, and community spirit as part of the Big Freeze. Together, we aim to raise vital funds and awareness to support those living with MND and to help find a cure. 


We would be incredibly grateful for your support. By donating through our fundraising page (link below) you will help fund essential research, improve care and support services for people living with MND, and bring us one step closer to ending this devastating disease.


Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference.


Thank you for your generosity and support. 


Together, we can defeat the Beast.

Thank you to our Sponsors
