Reuben Smith

Swim 8km in October 2025

Raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital

My name is Reuben and I am passionate about swimming ! I swim for a local club which I worked hard to get into. I am doing this to support children who are in need . The challenge is 8km but I am going to double this challenge to at least 16k ! Please if anyone can spare any change for this fantastic charity please do so , I would really appreciate it ! Big shout out to Great Ormond Street, LETs GET SWIMMING 😊

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.
