Story

*(EDIT)* Massive thank you to everyone who donated to get me over the £1500 required. Any money raised in excess will be split between SwimTayka and their Indonesian partner SwimDo


In July 2022, I will be volunteering in Bali teaching local
children the life skill of swimming and environmental education about water.

Drowning is a silent epidemic which claims 360,000 lives every year, most drownings occurring in low- and middle-income countries. As a charity SwimTayka’s envisions a world where no child is denied access to swimming lessons because of their economic status; striving to achieve this by providing free lessons to disadvantaged children and also providing environmental education on water; raising a future generation who will love, care-for and respect the rivers, lakes and oceans along which they live.

I will be volunteering in Keramas, Bali, spending two weeks on an intense swimming workshop with Bali children teaching them the life skills of swimming. For the trip to go ahead I need to fundraise £1500, this money will go towards lodging for the duration of the project, in-country ground transportation, on-site and office support, equipment donations, Swimdo and SwimTayka donations (I pay for my own flights, travel insurance and visa fees). To help my fundraiser I will be completing the three Yorkshire peaks in under
12 hours, doing this in April 2022. I also plan to do other forms of
fundraising events and will update these onto my just giving page as and when
they occur.

More information on exactly what swimTayka do can be found on their website https://swimtayka.org/. Updates on my volunteering and fundraising will be uploaded to my just giving page or onto my Instagram (brandonkdcarter). Any donations would be greatly appreciated and if there are any questions about it just drop me a message.

Thank you for reading.
