My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

So please dig deep and donate now.

I'm doing the Great North Swim - one mile in Lake Windemere - to raise money for the Encephalitis Society. My daughter Rebecca survived this rare and terrible disease. Funds are urgently needed for research and to give help and support to other families. All donations are gratefully received. Thank you!

I have now done the Swim - last Sunday! It was fantastic and I enjoyed every minute. The conditions were perfect - warm and sunny weather, calm and clear on the lake. Even the water wasn't too cold - the wetsuit helped. I managed a time of 47.13 minutes, not bad for breast stroke and taking time to enjoy the breathtaking scenery.

Many, many thanks again to all you lovely people who have sponsored me both on and offline.
