ASPIRE Channel Swim 2006 · 3 December 2006 ·

Every two hours someone in the UK is paralysed by a spinal cord injury. It can happen to anyone at any time and no one is prepared for how it will change their life. Aspire is a national charity that provides practical help, supporting spinal cord injured people from injury to independence.

Story

I really appreciate you finding the time to visit my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: ASPIRE 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 me now...as much as you can afford as every little helps...and all for a good cause...I won't let you down...

The total number lengths to do 22 miles in my local gym pool is 2609!.  I'll be doing breastroke because that's all I can do!  I'll keep you posted on progress here...so visit often...since the 11/09/06 I have now done 3,300 lengths (approx 30 miles) SO THAT MEANS I HAVE OFFICIALLY SWAM THE CHANNEL and I am now on the way back! I will try and swim back as well by 3rd December 2006!...but at the moment long days at work are getting in the way...

I would like to thank everyone who has sponsored me to help me reach my target.  Any more is a real bonus but going to a wiorthwhile cause...A BIG THANK YOU.

Steve P.
