We are fighting to make a world where diabetes does no harm

Story

I've always wanted to swim the Channel but I never thought that it would become reality.  Well it looks like I've got my wish and now I need to put all the hard work into the training to ensure that I succeed.

I have a tough six months before me, but not as tough as those who rely on the services provided by Diabetes UK.  My ordeal will be over in a few months, but for those with diabetes it can have a lifelong impact on their health and quality of life

Please help me to do something great for other people by offering your support in some way.

100%  of all money raised will go directly to the charity and all costs associated with the swim are being paid for out of my own pocket
