Swimming the Thames for J-A-C-K · 13 January 2009

The 2Simple Trust helps families of children suffering from neuroblastoma. Help is given by the provision of financial assistance for treatment and other needs as well as the funding of research into the disease. This work will shortly be transferred to a new charity set up specifically for the purpose and called The Neuroblastoma Children’s Cancer Alliance.

Story

Hi

Thanks for visiting my page.  If you'd like to find out what I've been up to preparing for my Thames Challenge for JACK, visit my site (to be updated shortly).

On 14th July 2009, I will be swimming the length of the Thames from source to estuary for J-A-C-K (www.j-a-c-k.org).  Joining Against Cancer in Kids supports children and research into Neuroblastoma.

Start: Cirencester (Gloucestershire)
End: Southend (Essex)
Distance: 215 miles / 346 kilometres
Duration: 14 days (expected)
Distance per day: 15.3 miles / 24.7 kilometres

This is the equivalent of nearly a Dover to Calais swim EVERY DAY for a fortnight!

The challenge is due to start around the 14th July 2009.

Please donate to this very worthy cause and don't foget to follow my progress on my webpage www.thames4jack.co.uk and check out my blogs and pictures/videos that will highlight the ups and downs of my training .

Thanks!

Loraine
