My target 8 kms

Swims 2 & 3 complete!

I've been MIA this past week because the day after my first swim, I got myself a positive COVID test! 
I've been really struggling this last week knowing I wouldn't be able to go for a swim and was even considering cancelling because of how ill I was feeling :/ 
But.... I managed to swim 1 kms last night and another 1 today! That's 3/8 kms completed. 
I know I still have a long way to go but I'm certain I can meet this goal and raise £100 for GOSH <3 
Thank you everyone for your continued support :) 

1st Swim Complete!

Swim 1 done! 
My goal is to do a total of 8 swims that are worth 1km each :) 
Thanks for any support whether that's donating or sharing this page! <3

I’m swimming 8km in October for GOSH Charity!

I’m challenging myself to swim 8km this October to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity).

Childhood is special. It should be a time of joy, wonder, curiosity and fun. Of making friends, making mistakes, and growing into the adults we become. But it’s also fragile, and sometimes all too brief.

That’s why Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity raises funds to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. For the children from all over the UK who are treated by Great Ormond Street Hospital every day, for children with rare or complex illnesses everywhere, for this generation and all those to come. Because no childhood should be lost to serious illness.

And with every kilometre I swim, and every pound raised, we’ll be helping to give seriously ill children the best chance and the best childhood possible.

Please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
