My name is James Jenkins, I am 17 years old and I go to Saffron Walden County High School. I am in the Sixth Form, where I am studying A-Levels in Maths, Economics and French. I hope to go to university next year to study French and Business Management. I enjoy many sports, particularly football, golf and of course swimming. I am captain of Saffron Seals Swimming Club and occasionally take part in competitions. I would like to swim at least 5 miles and will be raising money for the Essex Air Ambulance. The charity receives no Government funding and relies solely on donations from the public. Considering it costs £150,000 a month to keep the helicopter flying, and the service they provide is life-saving, it is definitely a worthy cause.
