Aspire Channel Swim 2010 · 5 December 2010 ·

Every two hours someone in the UK is paralysed by a spinal cord injury. It can happen to anyone at any time and no one is prepared for how it will change their life. Aspire is a national charity that provides practical help, supporting spinal cord injured people from injury to independence.

Story

UPDATE:  I've done it...!  All 1416 length completed.  Thanks to all who have pledged and continue to pledge money.

Thank for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My aim is to swim the channel distance in 14 days starting on Monday September 13th. That's averaging over 100 lengths per day. 1416 lengths of the 25 metre pool in total. 

So please dig deep and donate for this very worthy cause!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

 

Many Thanks

 

Simon
