My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

A race over two lengths may not seem very challenging but if that race is against some of the most experienced open water swimmers in the world, in the dark and EACH length is 10.5 miles long (21 MILE SWIM IN TOTAL) then it becomes more of a challenge.

Add to this the unknown....................a legend of an Eachy monster that lurks in the lake and a crew that would rather film a monster sighting for youtube than help the swimmer THEN you have A MONSTER SWIM!!

I hope you will agree that this event is worthy and that Help for Help for Heroes is an exceptionally good cause and you choose to donate.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Help for Heroes gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Thank You for Your Support
