As you all know, I love swimming. When I was younger, I dreamed of swimming The English Channel, as most swimmers possibly do. I have done many other open water swims, but never that one. This will probably be as close as I get, and I am delighted that I can do this and ALSO support such a good cause. Please help me achieve a dream that will ultimately help others...

The Chilterns Neuro Centre is a local independent charity based in Wendover that believes everyone affected by multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's and Strove survivors in the Chilterns area deserves to lead a healthier and happier life. We empower people to do this by helping them achieve their goals through physical, practical and emotional support for the entire family, for as long as they need. Our care is free and we aim to support people to live happier and healthier lives by improving symptoms and helping them to achieve personal goals.

We love what we do and couldn't do it without your support. Thank you for helping us raise over £1 million annually to fund our care. Every penny is needed to do what we do.
