Bonbeach Mermaids
Ms KILKENNY (Carrum) (10:03): I wish to acknowledge a group of fabulous women known as the Bonbeach Mermaids, who braved the icy waters off Carrum Beach last weekend to raise more than $3000 for Headspace. The group, the Bonbeach Mermaids, came together during the COVID lockdowns when locals Cassie Woolley and Nellie Luhrmann thought it would be a great way to get local women together and connected and to do something positive for their mental health every day. There are now more than 500Â members, and whilst they do not all swim every day, Bonbeach Mermaids continue to meet daily for a quick dip at Carrum Beach or, as they say, a dunk like a teabag. Well done, Bonbeach Mermaids.
