Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've signed up for the Aspire Channel Swim 2010 to swim the English Channel in my local swimming pool. The challenge is to swim 22 miles in 12 weeks between 13th Spetember and 5th December.

Aspire is a national charity providing practical support, funding and advice to people with spinal cord injuries in the UK and Ireland. Currently 40,000 individuals in the UK have a spinal cord injury and every day another four people are told they may never walk again. Aspire can help by providing specially adapted houses, grants for lightweight wheelchairs or specialist equipment.

£350 will buy SmartNav technology for a PC to enable someone with a high level spinal injury to use a computer.

£700 will buy a laptop and an accessible bed table for a child in hospital so they can continue to study and stay connected to friends whilst recovering.

£1,000 will provide a rise and fall hob or sink in one of our adapted houses.

£2,500 will buy a made to measure light weight wheelchair.

Please dig deep and give what you can and keep me swimming!!.

Thank you
