Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In these uncertain times, the need for the affordable counselling that Focus offers in Bath and Frome has become all the more important and indeed a lifeline for many people. As you may know, I am a counsellor for Focus and am acutely aware that referrals to our free or affordable counselling service are increasing. We need this vital funding to ensure we can continue to offer support to those in need. . 

So, I have signed up to The Frostbite Challenge to do 12 swims through winter. This entails 12 swims between 1st November 2021 and 28th February 2022(inclusive). At least one each month. Lake. River. Sea. Unheated outdoor pool. I can play my ‘Mermaid Card” on one occasion. This means I can have a cold bath or shower instead of a swim.  If possible one swim in a river, one in the sea and one in a lake.
