Thanks for stopping by!

I really like swimming. And I really like animals. A lightbulb went on and I had the idea of helping the latter by doing the former.

Hence I'm aiming to swim 175 miles, front crawl, arms only (with a leg float) in 2016 - the distance between Nottingham and Weymouth - at Portland Leisure Centre.

I'm raising money for rescued horses, donkeys and mules at the excellent Redwings charity, many of whom come from horrific backgrounds of mistreatment and malnourishment.

Thank you SO MUCH in advance!
