I was diagnosed as brittle asthmatic when I was 2 and have been in and out of hospital since then. The steroids I have to take aren't very nice but they help me to be better.

In October I was lucky enough to go on Dreamflight (www.dreamflight.org) and it really changed my life - it was an amazing experience and it has inspired me to help others to be able to go on the trip.

Each year Dreamflight takes 192 children to Orlando for a 10 day life-changing holiday, so I am going to swim 192 lengths of the 25m pool at the 'Everyone Active' Centre in Poole - 1 for each child and I hope to raise £1,920 towards the cost of sending someone on the 2013 trip. .

The challenge will take place on the 9th of February 2013 between 1800 -2100.  All are welcome to come along and cheer me on or even take part too!
