Thank you for taking the time to visit my page.

The original challenge is for 22 miles in 12 weeks, the length of the English Channel, but as many of you know I am a keen swimmer and for me this is not much of a challenge.  To make it a real challenge I will be doing 47 miles.  Which means I'm swimming the distance to France and back to England with 3 extra miles to cater for tides and currents pulling me back!  All to raise money for people who have been paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury.

Every eight hours someone is paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury. It can happen to anyone at any time, and there is currently no cure. Every pound that I raise means that Aspire can provide practical help to a spinal injured person, allowing them to live a more independent life, so please donate as much as you can and help make a difference.
