Story

WELCOME GENEROUS DONATORS,

As you may have heard I am part of the Wings swim team who this summer are taking on the cold, rough waters of the English Channel.  Yes I know, I haven't learnt my lesson after the marathon. 

We'll be taking on this huge challenge sometime between July 1st-10th depending on weather conditions. Hopefully avoiding tankers, jellyfish and seaweed we'll leave before dawn and finish 12-16hrs later before dusk.

The charity we're raising money for is Wings. Wings help disadvantaged young people, giving them the education, guidance and support to change their lives.  It's a great charity close to the hearts of local people.  Already Wings has changed the lives of so many young people but we need to raise £20,000 to continue this important work.

So please donate whatever you can, even if it's just to see me in my mankini being covered in grease by a group of sailors.

Thanks,

Sean
