Have made a strong start to week 2 with my first swim today - a solid 700m. This takes my total distance up to 3.4km now after squeezing a km in yesterday morning with mum....AND have raised over £700!! (incl gift aid! ) Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far. Keep spreading the word!Week 1!
Great start to the 8km challenge. 1500m smashed so far and 1 more swim left to complete on Friday.I’m swimming 8km in March for GOSH Charity!
I’m trying to swim 8km this March to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity).
I was born with a very unusual and rare condition due to a difficult pregnancy, which was critical and meant I started my life in a SCBU unit. GOSH were able to diagnose and treat my condition which let to a full recovery in my first year, for which my Mum and Dad are eternally grateful.
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.
