Story

Hi everyone!

We are Kelly and Rachel aka Totally Quackers, two passionate individuals who love the water, care deeply about our community, and are on a mission to make a difference.

Kelly’s Story

I’ve been working with people with disabilities for over five years, and last summer, I had the opportunity to help at Paddle Mobility in Dale. While I loved being in the water and helping out, I discovered a big challenge: there are no accessible changing or toilet facilities for disabled visitors. That’s when I decided to take action by raising funds through swimming challenges.

Rachel’s Story

Born and raised in Pembrokeshire, I’ve spent my life around horses, helping with Riding for the Disabled and exploring new adventures. Cold water swimming became a lifeline for my mental health, and it inspired me to give back. This year, I’ve chosen to support Sandy Bear Bereavement Charity, whose incredible work helps children and families navigate the pain of loss.

Our Goal

Together, we’re taking on open water swims & more exciting fundraising efforts to raise funds for two important causes:

1. Creating accessible changing and toilet facilities at Paddle Mobility in Dale.

2. Supporting Sandy Bear Bereavement Charity, ensuring they can continue their life-changing work.

How You Can Help

Your donation, big or small, will make a huge difference:

💧 Support the creation of facilities that ensure everyone can enjoy the water without barriers.

💧 Help Sandy Bear continue providing vital care to bereaved children and their families.

Join Us!

We’ll be sharing updates on our swim challenges, so follow our journey and cheer us on! Let’s make a real impact together.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support. 💙
