My target 8 kms

6km done!

Yeah, went a bit mad and tried to get as many lengths in as I can before I fly out of the country on Sunday. I will continue to swim whilst away and think of a new swim target for the rest of the month!

4km done!

Thank you everyone so far, managed to raise over £300 which is crazy to me. 4k down I should easily exceed the 8k so will keep going this month and see where I ultimately end up at!

2km done.

No idea how this website works but over 2km swam so far in a few days, thank you to everyone who donated so far. Never done anything like this before so it's a bit weird!

I’m swimming 8km in March for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to swim 8km this March 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.
