Story

Hi and thanks for being here!

Channel Eagle is a Tri-Service Channel Swim Relay competition - never attempted before!

In addition to the Relay swim Rob Healey will be attempting a solo Channel swim.

Depending on the weather, the team event will take place during the week of 31 Jul 07 - 04 Aug 07.  

Rob's solo attempt will be during the week 04 - 10 Sep 07.

Both events take place between Shakespeare Beach, Dover and Cap Gris Nez, France, a 22 mile swim, 

Obviously we hope it won't take us all week for each event but can't be more specific about exactly when we'll start swimming until it happens!

We're raising money for both the British Legion and DiabetesUK as both are close to our hearts.  Unfortunately we can only have one charity per page on JustGiving so we've got a separate one for DiabetesUK.  If you would prefer your donation to go to DiabetesUK rather than the British Legion please go to our other JustGiving page www.justgiving.com/robhealey02

Alternatively you can visit my website at www.channeleagle.co.uk and donate to our central fund where the proceeds will be split equally between the two.

We're really grateful for anything you're prepared to give.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Royal British Legion will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
