I am swimming the Thames Marathon 2022 on 14th August in support of The Max Windle Memorial Trust (MWMT).  This is a 14km swim from Henley to Marlow.

Max sadly passed away in January 2021, at the age of just 16, after suffering with his mental health. The MWMT was set up by his family in his memory and supports both local and national charities which focus on improving mental health, including depression, anxiety and suicide prevention, in children and young adults.

MWMT is a charity which is extremely close to my heart, having known Max since he was very young at Atlantis Horsham SC. I have never swum this distance before and it seems fitting to dedicate this to Max as he was an amazing sportsperson with recent acknowledgment in SPOTY 2021.

Any donations would be hugely appreciated. 

With love and thanks, Louisa xxx
