We support people with Spinal Cord Injury to help them live full, independent lives

Story

I'm taking on the Aspire Channel Swim 2018, swimming the distance of the English Channel over 12 weeks to raise money for Aspire. As a child I always dreamed of swimming the channel, and I've decided that there's no time like the present! 

Every eight hours someone is paralysed by a Spinal Cord Injury and Aspire provides the essential equipment, advice, housing and grants that spinal cord injured people need to live their lives independently. 

This is a big challenge, but the more I raise, the more of a difference I'll make, so please be generous!
