This August, I'll be taking on my first ever sporting event since I was 15 and forced to compete in school sports day - the Thames Half-Marathon, a 5.5K swim through one of the most beautiful (and hopefully not polluted) stretches of river.

I’m doing this to raise money for Level Water, a charity that provides 1-to-1 swimming lessons for children with disabilities. Every donation, no matter the size, will help Level Water give more children with disabilities the opportunity to kick-start a love of swimming, and learn a vitally important skill in a safe and supportive environment.

If you're able to donate £15, this amount directly funds a 1-to-1 lesson for a child.

Thank you so much for all your support 🌊
