Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Lancaster Men's Hub has existed for four years now; we are established in the community and we are very active in supporting men. We have a workshop and another premises, plus we maintain our flagship event of Elevenses every Friday. But our running costs are £300 per week. I want to raise money to pay for two weeks of our efforts.

Two years ago I swam the distance of the English Channel. This time I will swim the distance of the Marathon. This is 26 miles and 385 yards. To make the maths easier, this is 42.195 kilometres in a 25 metre swimming pool. Please wish me luck - I am allowing three months for this!
