💚 About My Cause
I’m taking part in this Swimathon to support Great Oaks Hospice, an incredible local charity that has been caring for people across the Forest of Dean for nearly 25 years.
They provide vital end-of-life care in people’s homes, as well as support for those living with life-limiting illnesses, and their families, carers, and loved ones. Every year, they help over 1,200 people in our community.
🌊 Why I’m Fundraising
The demand for their care continues to grow, but they rely heavily on fundraising to keep going. It costs almost £1 million a year to run the hospice, and every donation truly makes a difference.
That’s why I’m taking on this Swimathon — to help raise funds so they can continue supporting local people when they need it most.
If you’re able to donate, I’d be so grateful. Your support will go a long way in helping Great Oaks continue their amazing work 💚
