We are currently raising funds for the Great Britain Deaf Swimming Squad for the T2009 Deaflympics in Taipei, Taiwan from 5 to16 September 2009. The estimated cost for the team to participate will be £43,000. This includes Hotel, Flight, kit, insurance and all meals.
Why Sponsor Great Britain Deaf Swimming
Great Britain Deaf Swimming are self funded and do not receive any help or support from the Amateur Swimming Association or the Government. The Government at present will not recognise the Great Britain Deaf Swimming as a body. The ASA do recognise Great Britain Deaf Swimming (who are affliliated to the South East ASA Region), but they do not give any financial support. Therefore, we rely on charitable donations/sponsorships and kind donations from outside support.
All coaches,managers, physiotherapists and committee members who work with Great Britain Deaf Swimming are volunteers and to date no one has been paid for their hard work.
Donations through this site are simple fast and totally secure. It is also the most effective way to sponsor the Great Britain Deaf Swimming. We 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.
Please kindly sponsor us now.
Many thanks for your support
