Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm mad enough to have volunteered to be part of a team of super-fit(!) atheletes to tackle the channel. My motive for this insane venture is to give something back to Diabetes UK for the invaluable support they have given to my family since my son Harrison was diagnosed as an insulin-dependent diabetic.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Diabetes UK 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 dig deep and sponsor me online now!

Many thanks for your support - and we will be posting pictures to our website www.xswim.co.uk so you can laugh at how the challenge went.
