First of all, please don’t worry I’m not going all David Walliams and swimming the actual channel, I would definitely drown.

Instead I'm taking on the Aspire Channel Swim 2021, swimming the distance of the English Channel over 12 weeks to raise money for Aspire. Every four hours someone is paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury and Aspire provides the essential equipment, advice and housing 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!

I’ll be doing it in my regular pool which is 25m in length and equates to 1416 laps in just over 10 weeks. As I’ll be away for over two weeks during the challenge I’m starting it a week early, the 20th Sept instead of the 27th and it will run up until 20th December.

Many thanks for your generosity
