Leuchie House is a unique place where people with MS, Parkinson's & other long term conditions can have a respite break - a vital lifeline away from the difficulties of living with their condition. With tailor-made trips, activities & care we support them to have a real break away from the everyday.

Story

<p>On September 3rd we are braving icy waters, jellyfish, seals and gannet attacks, to swim <span style="text-decoration: underline;">3 miles in open water</span> from the iconic Bass Rock in the Firth of Forth, off the East Coast of Scotland, back to North Berwick harbour!</p> <p>We hope to raise funds for Leuchie House.&nbsp; A local charity who provide long term support for individuals and families suffering the devastating effects from Parkinsons, Huntingtons, MS and Motor Neurone disease.</p> <p>It's a great cause and a huge challenge, especially for Margo who's doing an open water swim for the first time.</p> <p>A support team will be on hand.... dangling a bottle of wine in front of us to encourage us on our way!!</p> <p>We hope you will support us.</p> <p>Thank you.</p>
