Persistent rain didn’t stop Woollahra Mayor Susan Wynne from putting on her swimmers and jumping in the pool for White Ribbon, along with Vaucluse swimmer Gary Meyers, fellow swimmer Rachael Elkaim and White Ribbon Chairman Andrew O’Keefe.
The team covered 3km in just under an hour and a half. Cr. Wynne said “I was counting down those laps and they couldn’t have come fast enough. But this was just an hour of suffering, which is nothing compared to what many women go through who suffer in silence all of their lives”. Cr Wynne and her teammates raised around $3,000 through sponsorship and a barbecue at Redleaf on the day.
