Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As you may know, I'm swimming a mile to raise money for Mencap, with two of my HR colleagues.  The event takes place on 25 July at Lake Dorney in Windsor and we're called the Mermaid-zing team.  Although we'd welcome your support on the day - providing you don't take any photos of us in our wetsuits! - we're also after your financial support too. 

Mencap has recently launched a campaign called 'Getting it right'. The campaign will help to save lives by improving the healthcare that people with a learning disability receive from the National Health Service. It will challenge hospitals, healthcare authorities, doctors, nurses and anyone who provides healthcare treatment for people with a learning disability to ‘Getting it right’. The campaign will run for 3 years.

Any donation will be a wonderful thing.

Wish me luck (I'll need it)!
