In early September a relay team of Aspire swimmers (two with spinal cord injuries) is going to swim the English Channel. The swim is across 22 miles of cold, dirty water with all sorts of things floating around  – not to mention tankers and ferries! You don't even get to buy Duty Free at the other end as you are stright back on the support boat to England.

Every day four people are told they may never walk again due to spinal cord injury.  Aspire is there to offer support for people with spinal cord injury through a variety of practically based projects.  These projects include accessible housing, IT training and a grant giving fund to buy essential equipment to help people lead an independent life. 

Thank you so much for your support, it is much appreciated.
