This year marks my 30th anniversary working for the fabulous Brandon Trust, and it just so happens to be our 30th birthday too! To celebrate this milestone, I'm taking on the 30 for 30 challenge by doing 30 sea swims with my swim club buddy, Damian Stephens. All the money raised will go towards supporting people with learning disabilities, helping them tackle everyday obstacles like poor healthcare, loneliness, unemployment, social poverty and hate crime.

Now, I usually don't ask my network for donations, but this year is special, and our ambitions are sky-high for the people we support. So, if you could dig deep (literally, rummage down the back of the sofa) and find a few pounds, that would be absolutely fantastic. And to sweeten the deal, I'll even post some hilarious videos of my aquatic adventures for you to enjoy while you donate. Think of it as comedy with a cause!
