<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p>
<p>So, on 2 September, myself and 5 equally insane friends (Kate, Flis, Cathy, Louise, Clare) are making the trip to Totnes in Devon to swim 10 (long) kilometres in the River Dart. We have all been training hard for this event and I can honestly say that, personally, I have never been so nervous or daunted by an event. As a number of people have said "10kms is a long way to RUN, let alone swim" - thanks for that.</p>
<p>My son, Reece, attended Grove Cottage for nearly 2 years and the service they provide is a lifesaver to parents of special needs children, giving them the break they need and giving the children in their care some fabulous experiences. Many of the people who work at Grove Cottage do so for free and give up their spare time to make these special kids' lives just that bit better.</p>
<p>So wish us luck and an apology in advance to the people of Totnes, but we are hoping for heavy rain throughout August to enable the current in the River Dart to be strong come September 3rd.</p>
<p> Thanks for donating - Tracy, Flis, Clare, Cathy, Louise and Kate</p>
