Hey Guys,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Most of you know that I had a lot of health problems in late 2009 and 2010. I had inflammation of the spine and had a lot of problems walking due to this. I am now approaching that 100% recovered mark and wanted to do something to challenge myself and raise money at the same time.

I decided to complete the Great British North Swim. Swimming a mile across Lake windermere in June.

I have seen too often the life changing injuries that our soldiers come home with. So it was important for me to choose a charity that helps these soldiers. I decided to raise money for Blesma. Blesma is a very worthwhile charity that really supports and helps these soldiers.

If you would like to donate I would be so grateful, as I am sure the charity would too!

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.
