<p>Jennifer and Alan have very bravely decided to&nbsp;take part in&nbsp;the Great North Swim on June 18th 2011 in aid of a&nbsp;charity called GRWE. The event takes place in Windermere, Cumbria and it is the UK's biggest outdoor swimming event.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Jennifer, Alan and family have homed several beautiful hounds over the years (see the picture of Sam and Gem!) and they would be extremely grateful for any&nbsp;donations to help them in their bid to raise as much money as possible for the charity. They really need all the encouragement they can get to help them prepare for their very brave venture!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>GRWE (Greyhound Rescue West of England) is the leading greyhound rescue charity in England&nbsp;and Wales independent of the greyhound racing industry.
