Story

On Sunday 24th June at 3pm I completed the 1 Mile British Gas Great North Swim in 41:17 to raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care and help them care for more terminally ill people and their families.

The Great North Swim is a one-mile outdoor swim in Windermere, Cumbria. The event takes place between the 22nd June and 24th June. I swam at 3pm on the 24th. - http://greatswim.org/Events/British-Gas-Great-North-Swim/

Just £20 provides 1 hour of Marie Curie nursing care, but whatever you can give will help terminally ill people and their families when they need it most.

If you wish to learn more about the work they do, please visit their website - http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/ 

You can also donate by texting "BGNS77" and your amount to 70070, e.g. "BGNS77 £10".

Thank you so much for your support.
