Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Most of my activity for the challenge will be outdoor swimming.  Although I have swum outdoors since going to the beach as a child I didn't realise it was now a 'thing' until a physio recommended it for my daughter's back problem.  Getting more involved in swimming on  a very regular basis, reading and understanding more about the physical, emotional and mental health benefits of it and meeting lots of lovely people through groups all around the world has been life affirming for me and my daughters.  Raising awareness of the positive aspects of this activity at the same time as raising funds for Befrienders Highland seemed to go well together.

I would love to swim with you one day, but even happier to see you donate to this worthy cause.

Thank you

Julie
