Story

Brig Oubridge is a 75-year old lifelong environmentalist and trustee of Salisbury EcoHub Alliance CIO. Since having half a lung removed 3 years ago he has been attending swimming sessions for cancer survivors at Salisbury District Hospital. Over that time he has increased his weekly swim from ten lengths to a current personal best of 90 lengths.

On Friday 14th August, he will attempt a new personal best of 100 lengths (2km in total) in aid of Salisbury District Hospital Stars Appeal, which funds these swimming sessions. This swim will be envigilated by one of the hospital pool trainers, Chris, who set Brig this challenge, and will issue a certificate to verify its completion.

Please give as much as you can afford to help this very good cause and make my swim worthwhile. Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
