Thank you for your donations - you are all very wonderful and generous. We all successfully completed the course and lived to tell the tale.

On the 3rd of July 2010, the Martin brothers and sisters completed a one-mile outdoor swim in the heart of the capital, in the Royal Victoria Docks, as part of the Great London Swim.

It's still not too late to donate if you didn't get round to it. We need your help in raising money to support Shelter, a charity that works to alleviate the distress caused by homelessness and bad housing.

Thanks for anything you can give!
