Yes I have chickened out from doing it in the actual&nbsp;channel. I don&rsquo;t really fancy all that goose fat. However 1440 lengths of the 25 metre pool is going to be challenging enough.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Comic Sans MS&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">A little about the charity...</span></p> <p style="behavior: none;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Comic Sans MS&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Fundraising for ParalympicsGB means we can contribute to the fabulous work and efforts for our largest ever Paralympic team competing in London.</span></p> <p style="behavior: none;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Comic Sans MS&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">With&nbsp;th Games in London 2012, ParalympicsGB have a once in a lifetime opportunity to make a lasting impact on attitudes towards disability and importantly to inspire more people with a disability to get into sport.</span></p> <p style="behavior: none;"><span><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Comic Sans MS&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">ParalympicsGB&nbsp;provide amazing opportunities and support through sport for individuals with disabilities.&nbsp;Every &pound;1000 raised will pay for a full medical team to support the&nbsp;Paralympians, including&nbsp;doctor, nurse, physio and psychologist.&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Comic Sans MS&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
