Story
In the following months I will attempt to swim the straights between Ksamil in Albania and Corfu in Greece, a distancce of 5 km.I will do this to raise awareness for people born with disabilities and raise funds for two schools in Corfu and Zante doing excellent work supporting young people with special needs.
Mahatma Ghandi once said, the true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members. Your support is greatly needed by these two institutions and will encourage them to continue their exemplary work of supporting young people in needs, against all odds. It will also be a massive vote of confidence in me and my ability to swim the crossing from Albania to Corfu, a years long dream of mine.
Each individual donation will be equally split in favour of both schools

1 year agoThank you so so much to all of you who helped me reach the 80% and £4k mark. You are all wonderful and your generosity and kindness is truly humbling. Through your contributions, big or small, you are changing the lives of those children and those of people in their surrounding communities. George

I grew up in Greece and I come from the Greek islands, including Zante and Corfu. I spent my childhood swimming in the crystal clear waters of the Ionian and the Aegean sea. I am now a London-based lawyer. I hope you will join me in my journey in support of children in need
