<p>Here we are again folks. I can't believe it has been 12 months since I was last in this predicament, and now I have made it twice as tough by signing up to the 2 mile swim in 2012.</p>
<p>If that is not tough enough, I am currently training hard with the aim to complete the 2 mile swim in under 60 minutes, a tough ask when I only managed the mile in just shy of 37 minutes in 2011. Take a look at a few of the photos from last year that I have loaded onto this page.</p>
<p>But really, what am I talking about...</p>
<p>The sick children and their families, for whom Bethany's Sunshine Fund was set up to support, spend every minute of every day enduring a hard slog of emotional and physical turmoil whilst trying to overcome the various medical conditions these children suffer with.</p>
<p>During these tough times, many families also have to suffer financial hardship due to increased costs associated with hospital visits, alternative accommodation or trying to get specialist equipment fitted at home so their sick child can return to family life.</p>
<p>Bethany's Sunshine Fund assist these families, along with assisting Birmingham Children's Hospital and Children's Hospices such as the Donna Louise Trust in Stoke-on-Trent. To find out more, visit their page on Just Giving or search for Bethany's Sunshine Fund on Facebook.</p>
<p>In the meantime, thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page and I hope you will take the time to Sponsor me and assist my chosen charity to help many more families in need.</p>
<p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
