Jewish Blind & Disabled is the only Jewish charity providing mobility apartments with 24/7 on site support for people aged 18 upwards who have physical disabilities or impaired vision. The life of each tenant is transformed by this opportunity to live independently with the dignity of choice.

Story

We've ran, we've cycled, we've even jumped out a plane but never before have we swum! Yes you heard it here first. The Roston (and Levy) siblings are going swimming. To be precise, we will be swimming over 2 km... in the Thames... against the current! To put this in context, this will equate to swimming approx. 85 lengths of a pool whilst avoiding any flotsam / jetsam / general Thames sewage and hypothermia and all whilst the river will be doing its best to push us the other way... actually, we are a bit worried that Ben might finish before the start line!

Why have we agreed to this folly? well it's all in aid of a cause close to our hearts; Jewish Blind and Disabled. A fantastic charity we are proud to support (please see below for more information).

So please give as generously as you can. We will be incredibly grateful and your support might just help to get us over the finish line!

Thanks in advance,

Ben, Emma & Daniel
