Story

Edward was listening to Christmas songs on the way home from school when Do They Know It's Christmas? came on.  Edward asked Laura what the song was about and Laura explained that there are people in the world who have little to no food.  Edward didn't respond immediately, but as they were driving along our road he asked, "Mummy, what can I do to help people have food at Christmas time?" Laura's, and later my, heart felt ready to explode with pride and we explained that there are ways of doing sponsored activities to raise money.  Edward can swim but he's learning to become more proficient so together we decided that he will swim 12 times between 1st and 25th December calculating the cumulative metres which he has reached.  We, but more specifically Edward, would really appreciate any donations which can be made to the Food For All cause.  You can sponsor a set amount or an amount per metre swum.  Thank you for your generosity.
