Allora Pool

04/04/2025

Dear Allora Swimming Community,
It is with a heavy heart that I share this news.

Due to health concerns and family commitments, I have had to reassess my work and travel commitments, and I have made the difficult decision to accept a position closer to home.

I am incredibly grateful for the support, friendship, and sense of community that I have experienced here. This was not an easy decision to make, and I know it may bring mixed emotions—I have certainly felt them too.

Coaching the children of Allora district has been a true privilege, and I will always cherish the memories we have made together.

To the entire Allora community, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will forever treasure the friendships and experiences I have gained here.

I am in contact with the council to discuss the best way forward regarding the leasee of the pool. I will advise everyone as soon as I possibly.

With deepest gratitude,

Andrew "Fidgey" Fidge

If you would like to support Jess, please find the information and link below:

More than 1 in 3 young people in Australia are experiencing mental health difficulties. Su***de remains the leading cause of death for young people aged 14-24.

This March, I'm swimming 45km to help change that.

Please donate today:

I need your help. I'm challenging myself to swim to save lives. Every day, one young person in Australia takes their own life – that's one too many. Please donate to my fundraising page and help ReachOut provide all young people in Australia with the support they need to be happy and well. ...
