Chill Thrill Challenge

Welcome to the Chill Thrill Challenge!

Fearless friends, it’s time to channel your inner polar bear and take the plunge into the cold, to raise funds for brain injury and major trauma survivors.

Whether you’re standing in a freezing cold shower, chilling in an ice bath, or braving a brisk outdoor sea dip, this challenge is all about pushing boundaries and embracing resilience!

Here’s the deal:

  • Donate to our JustGiving campaign (link below)
  • Dip into the icy abyss, film your encounter, then spill the beans on social media using the hashtag #ChillThrillChallenge and tagging us @chrysaliscm
  • Tag as many buddies as possible!

Let’s make a splash for good, donate generously and most importantly show our support.

TheĀ Poles of InconvenienceĀ Rally

July 2024

 

What is it?

The Details: Poles of Inconvenience: Europe Edition – The Adventurists

Team: Chrysalis – Embracing Change

There is nothing more inconvenient in life than suffering a life changing injury.

People who have suffered from a brain injury or major trauma have had their life blown to pieces, and their subsequent recovery is fraught with tough times, where passion and perseverance is needed to reach their goals.

We are taking part in The Poles of Inconvenience Rally 2024, as we believe the journey symbolises the grit and determination that is needed to push through rehabilitation to reach an end goal. The extremes of emotion are experienced – the elation of making progress and the despair of suffering setbacks. The key message is, to move forward, no matter how small the steps are, or how difficult it gets.

All journeys into the unknown are not easy or linear, they are full of surprises, some good and some bad. Often, the help and support of our fellow humans is necessary, embracing their expertise and comfort when times get tough. Human connection is the most fundamental and necessary part of life and of success.

Learning to accept and embrace change, recognising that change although scary, can lead to immense personal growth and achievement.

ā€˜Inconvenientā€™ does not mean ā€˜unreachableā€™
