Story

You may already know this but every week Isle of Wight cancer sufferers needing care have to travel to the mainland to receive their treatment.   Wessex Cancer trust are a charity that offer amazing support on many levels but they need our help.    For this very reason I have put my hand up and offered to swim across the Solent to help raise much-needed funding.   I’m proud to say that The Collection by HRD are sponsoring the event but, that is just the beginning.    I know it’s going to be a gruelling journey for me but, it won’t be a patch on the one travelled by our friends and family who have to cross the same sea for their treatment.    

When the sea is rough and I’m getting the odd salty wave in my face, it’s raining and the wind is blowing, it’s your donations that keep me going so, please give a little it doesn’t matter how small. Thank you 🙏🏻 🧜‍♀️🐠
