One of Graham's most notable contributions to mental well-being is the Pevensey Plungers, a cold water therapy sea swimming group he founded. His viral video, filmed in Pevensey Bay in 2021, garnered 25,000 views in just four days. This grassroots movement has since grown to include hundreds of people joining to take the plunge from all over Sussex and further a field, changing countless lives with its mental and physical health benefits.
Taking this success across the Atlantic, Graham launched the New York Dipper's Club (NYDC) at Rockaway Beach, gaining recognition from TV, radio, and even The New York Times.
The pinnacle of the day was Graham's renowned "splatter art" performance, which he has previously staged in the UK through Youth Art Connect. Armed with 80 ketchup bottles filled with paint, Graham led the children in a rainbow-coloured frenzy.
