    Story

    Wow, what a challenge I have taken on! An all female relay swim from England to France.

    I now feel a combination of excitement and fear as I approach the September window we have been allocated to swim the English Channel.

    For me, this will be a massive physical and mental challenge and as some of you may know, I have struggled with my own mental health over the last few years. During this time I have been helped greatly by a local non profit organisation called 'Recovery in Mind'. So it's now my turn to give something back, which is why I'm raising funds for them.

    There are lots of costs involved with the swim which I am paying myself, so all the money I raise will go to 'Recovery in Mind'.

    I would love you to support me by donating.

      We did it, that was the most amazing experience. I have never felt so euphoric and still do. 14 hours and 18 minutes of great team work. Spring tides meant we were up against it, but, wow, it was worth it and to know that every penny raised is going to Recovery in Mind just adds the icing to the cake. Thanks everyone for your support, it means so much.
