Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'll be swimming from one end of Coniston Lake to the other - a distance of 5.25 miles in total. This is much further than I have previously swum and will take me over 3 hours (probable much more!). I'll be raising money for Tiny Lives, a charity that helped my family when my second son, Finnian, was born in 2014. The support we got in Finnain's first days from the charity and the RVI in Newcastle was incredible. Finnian's condition meant his early days were very difficult but he fought his way through them and has made a full recovery and just earlier this year has been signed off by the RVI. I hope you'll sponsor me for this swim and help, if only in a small way, the incredible work Tiny Lives does with new born babies and their families.
