I did it!

Thankyou to everyone who has sponsored me. I just swam my last 60 lengths to complete my challenge. If you have been meaning to sponsor me but not got round to it it's not too late and any thing you can afford will be very gratefully received 😘

First swim

Haven’t figure out how to add distance to page but just completed first 1k swim! Thanks to everyone that has sponsored me so far 🥰💪🏼

Why am I doing this

In 2016 our beloved youngest daughter Beth, who was 16 at the time, was diagnosed with a brain tumour. She was immediately admitted to  Great Ormond Street Hospital where she was operated on by the incredible Mr Jeelani, and fortunately made a full recovery. As if that wasn't amazing enough, this inspired her to train as a paediatric nurse and she now works at GOSH! I now work at a fantastic school for special needs learners, many of whom have been or still are under Great Ormond Street's care. So clearly it holds a very special place in my heart and I am very happy to do whatever I can to support them. Any donations you can afford would be gratefully received ❤️

I'm swimming 8K in March for GOSH Charity

I’m challenging myself to swim 8 kilometres this March to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity).

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.

And with every metre I swim I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.

Thank you to my Sponsors
