ABOUT US

Hey there!

I’m Becky. I’m an artist from Ireland and adventure athlete. I’ve backpacked and travelled around the world painting and creating art inspired by mental health for quite a number of years, and eventually returned to Ireland to complete my biggest adventure yet.

A few years ago, I lost someone very close to me to suicide. I had never been a very open or vocal person when it came to mental health- but this really hit me hard and made me realise just how taboo mental illness really is in our community. So, I began trying to raise awareness.

My friend and I connected through skating by the sea, and so I set off and skateboarded the longest coastal route in the world for suicide awareness and finished on the same paths we once skated.

This took five months, was 3100KM and three and a half Mount Everest’s in elevation. I also paddle boarded to fifteen islands, and ferried out and skated another fifteen or so.

This year, I don’t plan on stopping. There are talks and podcasts happening around the country, I’m painting mental health murals everywhere and gearing up for the next big adventure. You can help support me through this by purchasing merch, or through the support button on the home page. Thankyou for being here!
