British Gas has organised two hugely successful charity challenges over the last few years and I stood back and thought that's not for me, I don't need to get involved I'll just donate.  So when this year's challenge was announced, to raise £1 million for Great Ormond Street Children's Charity by swimming just 1,000 metres and raising at least £200 I thought differently.  I thought, I want to get involved and help change someone's life.

 

Now, as most people who know me realise, I'm not the most physically fit person out there, so this will be a good challenge for me to achieve.  The more people donate the more I'll be motivated to make sure I achieve this challenge.  No matter how much you can spare, it will go to a most worthy cause and will make sure I'm put through my swimming paces.  I'll be living up to my nick name of Flipper or Flip flop on 30th June at Leeds University Pool.
