Story

Those of you who know me will know that I am not the sportiest of people, but I do love a splash about in a swimming pool.  So I thought I would challenge myself and take part in Swim 22.  My hubby has been Type 1 since 2005 and has done a fair bit of fundraising for this charity himself.  Now its my turn to make him proud of me.  You never know when diabetes will affect you, it was a shock when Alex became diabetic as he was and is a fit and healthy person.  It would be great to see a cure for this condition.  Wish me luck and thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This is the second time I have signed up for Swim22 and I’m hoping to manage more than the 22miles this times
