My story

 

Well we made it, we started at 3pm on Saturday 5th September 2009 and 24 hours later had set the world record for underwater Twister. Over 60 people took part underwater with even more helpin topside. A fantastic event and well worth all the effort, a massive thankyou to all that have helped in so many ways

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation, it’s the most efficient way to donate

So please dig deep and donate now.

CANCERactive aims to help people increase their personal odds of beating cancer by laying out ALL the very latest research information from around the world whether it is about orthodox, complementary or alternative therapies. This is available on their website www.canceractive.com and in their magazine icon. Don’t let people die of ignorance, not knowing can kill.

We wanted to do something different and one night (perhaps when we had spent a little too long at the bar) we came up with a 24 Hour underwater twister competition. Swan pool in Buckingham have kindly agreed to let us use their pool and Stowe Sub Aqua Club www.stowesubaqua.co.uk will be providing the dive kit and instructors. For those that can be in Swan pool Buckingham on the 5th/6th September and haven't done SCUBA diving before, Nationally Qualified SCUBA Diving instructors will be on hand to teach you the skills, take you on a "Try Dive" before you enter the competition.

We are hoping to set the world record for underwater Twister and have the support of Miflex the incredibly flexible dive hoses. www.miflexhoses.co.uk

Give as much as you can and if eligible tick the gift aid box. Also your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
