Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Ben, and my father has Motor Neurone Disease. I care for him at home along with my family, and make videos on YouTube about my life, and the ways that I help Dad. Every boxing day I go into the cold sea in aid of Motor Neurone Disease. I get sponsored by friends and family and the money I make all goes to the MNDA.

 

On Boxing Day at around 12pm on Dover beach (Kent) I'll be dressed as Spider Man and will swim in the cold sea for 3-4 minutes.

 

I aim to collect money from as many people sponsoring me to do the swim. Every year I dress up as something completely random (last year I went for a swim dressed up as a Hot Dog, and the year before that I dressed up as Banana Man).  

 

Any sponsorship would be greatly appreciated, and anyone who wants to come down and say hello to Spider Man is greatly welcomed! I will aim to be in Dover a hour before the swim with two friends to collect money before the boxing day dip takes place. I hope to see lots of people there this year!
