Unleashed Performance Reading Half Marathon · 2 April 2023 ·

Starfish is a competitive swimming club which aims to give young people with learning difficulties the opportunity to improve their swimming capability and to realise their full potential as a swimmer, whilst developing a strong sense of teamwork, self discipline, self-esteem and sportmanship.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We have been training hard over the Winter months and we will be running the Wokingham Half Marathon on Sunday 26th February and the Reading Half Marathon on Sunday 2nd April to raise funds for the Starfish Swimming Club.

Starfish support young people with learning difficulties, including Autism and Down's Syndrome, to first learn to swim and then to move to on to competition in galas organised by the likes of the Special Olympics movement. Many of our members will have struggled to learn to swim in a mainstream group swimming lesson so Starfish help to encourage them into the water, give support to the children and parents to help them learn to swim and then they progress on. 

Further details on Starfish can be found here:  www.starfish-swimming.org.uk

Donations to our cause of any size would be very much appreciated and please tick the Gift Aid box, if you can, in order to maximise your donation. 

Many thanks for your support,

Olly, Dijana and Luka
