Story

Nick is married to my daughter Coora. Nick sadly lost his older brother David 10 years ago and this month would have been David's 40 birthday.

David's story:

Take A Hike For David and Sacred Rok - Roots Up Collective

His family who hail from California are marking this sad milestone by turning it into a positive energy helping to support a charity in California who help adolescents navigate through the difficult periods in their lives through the healing power of physical activity and engaging with nature.

I am raising money for two charities, "SacredRok" a US based charity who help support young people who struggle through the challenges of adolescence, challenges David understood well. 

For those who would prefer to donate to a UK based charity, I am also raising money for  "Raise Your Hands" who support young people similarly through these challenges in the UK. We know David would think it cool that this could help kids "across the pond" as well.

I will be swimming 40km between 25th April and 4th August to raise money for these charities. The majority will be done at the regular lake I swim at Bray Lake (Open Water Swimming at Bray Lake (braylakeswimming.com)) but also at the Jubilee River and possibly in Cornwall. All open water swimming which I do all year around.

I will be tracking each kilometre and will update the site with my progress

For any of you kind enough to donate, you have the choice of giving to either the US or UK based charity whichever you feel comfortable with, both are linked to this site. Any kind contributions of any amount I will be truly grateful for.

Thanks

Dermot
