My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The British Stammering Association 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.

So please sponsor me now!

I am also raising money for the Royal National Lifeboat Instituttion: The link to that page is: http://www.justgiving.com/rachelreed3

I have now done the swim on the 25th of September and it took me 17 hours and 23 minutes! Great news and the weather held out for me! Marian Arnott Weeks and Janice Wheeler made a fantastic team with their help and all crew! Special thanks as well to Martin and Sonia at the Sandham Guesthouse, Dover for their hospitality and support!

Very good cause and well done on the crossing. Donation by neal evans 07/11/09
