Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Sunday, 13th September, I'm going to attempt my first open water 1-mile swim across Lake Windermere in order to raise money for Nick's charity - Henshaws. Anyone who has met the inspirational visually-impaired people who are helped by Henshaws cannot fail but to be motivated into action - and that's why I'm donning a wet suit and joining thousands of other mad souls who are swimming across a freezing lake in the British autumn!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Henshaws really is doing the most amazing work. So please dig deep and donate now.
