Raising Awareness for GOSH!

Thank you so much for visiting my page!

I’m a Year 3 Biomedical Science undergraduate at the University of Oxford and an international student. This 8KM swim in March is part of a personal challenge to push beyond my comfort zone, stay disciplined, and commit to goals that extend beyond academics.

More importantly, I’m taking part to raise awareness for Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and the extraordinary work they do for seriously ill children and their families. As a biomedical science student, I deeply appreciate how vital research, clinical care, and innovation are in transforming young lives — and GOSH is at the forefront of that mission.

I’m also very grateful to be taking on this challenge alongside my good friend, William Yu. If you’d like to support him as well, you can visit his page here: https://fundraise.gosh.org/fundraisers/haofeiyu32461/swim-8km-march-2026

This challenge is primarily about raising awareness. If you’d like to support, simply sharing this page, spreading the word about GOSH, or following the journey would mean so much.

You can follow my progress on Instagram at @m1ngwan.challenges.

Thank you again for your support — it truly makes a difference.
