Swim 8km in October 2025

Stanley

Hey guys. Hope you’re all well. 

This time last year, instead of settling into Reception like his peers, Stan was receiving chemotherapy and was only able to attend school for a few hours each day. This year he is healthy and energetic; settling well into Year 1 and asking to stay longer at after school club!

This is all due to GOSH screening Stanley regularly and looking after him so well. 

This October, I’m challenging myself to swim 8km to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity). I’d love to raise £350 to help give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

 This will be a big challenge for me, but I’m determined to complete it and I would really love your support! Please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference as together, we can help change the lives of seriously ill children. 

Thank you xx

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.
