Ok so it's officially postponed until Sunday at 415pm!!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 22nd June 2012 I will swim across Lake Windermere for two miles.  I am raising money for the Christie Foundation in memory of a friend and lovely partner of my friend Kevin who was cared for by the amazing teams there.  This was why I chose The Christie.  Since this time, my father has been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer and additionally two friends have also been diagnosed with cancer, all of whom are fighting this terrible disease with dignity and a strength most people would only wish they had!!  

Those who know me know I lived in Manchester for some time and I passed The Christie Foundation every day on my way to work - I have always been in awe of the work they do.

For only 2 hours of my time I am hoping to raise a significant contribution to the work they do.  Please sponsor me - I am not a natural athlete but I know I can do this!  If Elaine could fight for so long and my Dad, David and Vicki can do what they are doing - I can bloody well swim two miles!  Please give generously! xx
