I’m now 76, and this March I’m taking on a challenge that scares me a little and matters to me a lot. I’ll be rowing and swimming a total of 50 miles at Hatfield Sports Village to raise money for the RSPCA.

Did you know the RSPCA takes 104 cruelty calls an HOUR

Animals have always depended on us to speak up for them. When they’re hurt, abandoned, or frightened, the RSPCA tries to step in.. They rescue, they heal, and they keep going even when it’s hard.

This may not be an easy 50 miles but compared to what many animals go through, discomfort is a small price to pay.

If you’re able to sponsor me, you won’t just be helping an old man keep , well try to keep fit. You’ll be helping real animals get food, care, safety, and another chance at life.

Every mile I row and swim is for them.

Thank you for reading, and thank you for any support you can give.
