Story

Please read— the links to both charities are below

As a serving member of the armed forces, I am dedicated to supporting two causes that are close to my heart.

The RAF Benevolent Fund provides crucial assistance to the families of the Royal Air Force, while Cancer Research UK is at the forefront of the fight against cancer. In memory of loved ones lost to this disease and in honor of those who have bravely battled it.

I am committed to making a difference. My stepdaughter's courageous fight against Triple Negative Breast Cancer has shown me firsthand the importance of ongoing research and treatment options.

By participating in a personal swimming challenge across the channel to France in July 2025

I aim to raise £2,500 for Cancer Research UK. Your support will not only help me reach this goal but also contribute to life-saving advancements in cancer treatment. Together, we can make a meaningful impact.
