Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I did it !

On 26 September 2009 I took part in Hospiscare's first open water swim at Roadford Lake along with 400 others to raise much needed funds for Hospiscare to maintain their work nursing terminally ill patients, specifically with respect to the day hospice in Tiverton which Hospiscare have founded following the closure of the Marie Curie day hospice.

A memorable swim in a beautiful location which I dedicated to the memory of my dear departed wife Karen who benefitted from Hospiscare's services in the last months of her life.

Thanks to all of you who have supported me in this challenge and who now feel moved to do so.
