Betty Brown's 100 Swimming Challenge

Betty Brown's 100 Swimming Challenge · 21 April 2021
Thanks for taking the time to visit Betty's JustGiving page. Betty has always been raising money for disabled groups since she contracted Polio when she was just 19. Although she is 88, she has worn a caliper on her leg ever since, and has to use crutches or wheelchair to get around and she has recently been diagnosed with a rare cancer that cannot be treated. She does not know how long she has but has been inspired by Sir Captain Tom's challenge to do 100 so she was attempting to do 100metres swimming at the Phoenix pool in Bradwell.
Because of the pandemic and her illness she has not swum for over 2 years but on Saturday morning she got into the pool and did 200 metres and now wants to try to do 100 lengths of the pool. She is a very determined and amazing lady and hopefully she will achieve this by doing a few more lengths each Saturday.
