Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We are swimming in our pool (attached to the wall) the time it takes (on average) to swim across the English Channel! We have 5 days to complete our challenge in freezing cold water!! 

From Niamh:

I want to do this because it's a good personal challenge, and to think that we might be able to help older people in our community is just amazing!

It upsets me to know that there are lots of old people who are on their own, especially during this pandemic. I hope that people will help us by spreading the Age UK North South and West Dorset name and donate lots of money to mine and my brothers crazy challenge!


From Ethan:

We are doing this because we have seen first hand the work that Age UK North, South & West Dorset are doing.  They are helping so many people who do not have anybody in their lives to help.  

It is a cold and tough challenge for my little sister and I to do, and if we can raise some money too then that would be awesome! 

PLEASE HELP US.  THANK YOU XX
