Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. We got married and are fundraising for WeSwim, a charity who are increasing the opportunities for people with disabilities to swim in London. Their volunteer run clubs empower adults with disabilities to stay active, connect with others and build lasting confidence.
David and Laura are keen to raise money for a cause that means a great deal to us. Laura as a disabled swimmer and David as a volunteer. We have been going to Weswim since 2022 and it means so much to both of us and all the swimmers and the amazing volunteers. We really appreciate anything you are able to give to this wonderful club to support it.
We love Weswim
WeSwim is a lifeline for people with disabilities who really struggle to get active through typical leisure provision. 1 in 6 Londoners has a disability and WeSwim have a waiting list of over 120 people. This year, they are planning to open more clubs to get more people with disabilities into the water. It costs £10,000 to run each club for 6 months.
How your donations can help:
£5 could cover the costs of refreshments for our swimmers
£20 could cover the costs one volunteer’s DBS checks to get them started
£40 could cover the cost of an entire swim for person with disabilities
