Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've been chosen to join a team to sail around the world, in a race against 11 identical yachts. This is by far the biggest challenge of my life and anything after may struggle to come close!! We'll be dealing with physical mental and emotional challenges all while being fatigued due to sleeping for 3 hours at a time (and often riding waves at 45 degree angles!).......

but here's the kicker......

I HAVE NEVER SAILED BEFORE! Never even stepped foot on a sailboat, so it should be interesting.

Some of the challenges include hurricane force winds,  icebergs,wind holes, squalls and humidity. Then there's the simple things like sleeping in a cramped bunk (often at 45 degree angles in a storm) and using the toilet in violent weather. I'M GENUINELY SCARED

Thank you for taking the time to read this, please be generous as Make-a-Wish UK is such a great charity to support.
