Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Once again I am participating in Oxford Leon Association's sponsored swim. The swim is to raise money for one of Oxford's twinned cities, Leon in Nicaragua. Unfortunately there has been considerable social unrest in the country and this has depressed the tourist industry- which has meant that peoples' incomes have gone down even more than before. We need to show the people of Leon - especially the most marginalised- that we in Oxford support them!
I have agreed to do 40 lengths on the assumption that I hopefully am not even worse at swimming than this time last year; however I have done literally no swimming over the last year aside from splashing about with the kids. So I anticipate a bit of a struggle. Hopefully the spectacle of me huffing and puffing will at least give the other spectators a good laugh! ;-)
