Swim 8K in March 2024

My Activity Tracking

My target 8 kms

So this seems a good idea right now…

While on holiday with the family I saw a post for this fundraiser. I’m not usually a “let me do something physical for charity” type, but Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) is one I feel compelled to support,

When my son was born, he had a rare and, for many, life-changing condition diagnosed. GOSH is where he had the surgery he needed at 6 months old, all through the NHS, so I’ve seen at first hand just how dedicated and brilliant the teams there are, and what a change the existence of this specialist centre has in the care for children with complicated conditions and health issues. They put him back together, and mended our hearts at the same time ❤️

So here goes - I would love your help to support their work, the building of their facilities and funding of the machines and services they need, which make such a difference to so many kids and their families. 
Whatever you can spare, however little, would be great - it all adds up.

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.
