On 21 June we are aiming to swim the entire length of Lake Coniston, a total of 5.25 miles in cold water in the heart of the Lake District.

We are hoping to raise some much needed funds for a local charity called JAC (Just Around The Corner) that does amazing work for children in Berkshire struggling with complex emotional and mental health issues. It is a unique centre providing personal learning and development therapies for children and young people. Anything you can give to this wonderful charity would be greatly welcomed.
