Swim the Channel, indoors, in November · 30 November 2009

We're Children's Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS). We care for children throughout Scotland with life-shortening conditions and their families. We make sure that no matter how short their time together may be, it is filled with happiness. Even in the pain of grief, we're determined that joy lives on.

Story

Hi,

Kerry and I have committed to doing the Indoor Channel Swim, organised by the Gleneagles Leisure Club.  We have to swim the channel, or the equivalent distance, in the swimming pool during the month of November. Basically this means swimming about 1 mile (80 lengths) almost every day of the month.  With 8 children between us, this is as much of a logistical challenge as it is one of fitness.

We are in a recession and its the run up to christmas, but please if everyone gave just a couple of pounds we would be able to make a difference to the lives of seriously ill children.  The Children's Hospice Association of Scotland (CHAS) helps many terminally ill children and their families throughout their illness and beyond.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Thank you for supporting us.
