Our challenge is a 2 mile swim in Lake Windermere on Sunday 15th June in a water temperature of around 14°C. Samuel says I have more insulation (undeniable from our training photo at Easter), but I think it's also likely that he'll be finished and enjoying a hot drink whilst I'm still swimming...

We are hoping this challenge can raise some money for Macmillan, because we have experienced for ourselves how the support from Macmillman makes a big difference when a loved one is diagnosed with cancer.

The number of people diagnosed with cancer is growing, and every one of them needs the best support to meet their unique needs. That's why Macmillan will do whatever it takes to help everyone living with cancer across the UK get the support they need right now and transform cancer care for everyone who will be diagnosed in the future.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving, once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity.

Thanks so much for supporting our fundraising - it means a lot to us and Macmillan.

Nick & Samuel
