Hi Everyone.  I completed my 3 mile swim on Sunday 9th May.  I started swimming at 12pm and finished the 192 lengths at 3.40pm!! Was very hard work, expecially the last 20 lenghts, but was well worth it!! Thankyou to everyone who has supported me and sponsored me :). This JustGiving page will stay open for a few months in case anyone else would like to donate :).  Thanks to everyone again! well done :) xx

Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page :D.  On the 15^th of May 2010 is MPS Awareness Day; therefore I am doing a sponsored 3 mile swim to help raise awareness about this childhood disease. 

Mucopolysaccharide (MPS) and related diseases affect 1:25, 000 births in the UK.  One baby born every eight days in the UK is diagnosed with an MPS or related disease. 

This disease causes progressive physical disabilities in children and severe degenerative mental deterioration resulting in death during childhood.

At present there is no cure for these devastating diseases.

Please sponsor me doing my 3 mile swim (nearly 200 lengths!!).  The money raised will go to the MPS Society where every penny will go towards helping support those affected by MPS and related diseases.  My swim will take place on the 9^th of May 2010 at Totton Swimming Centre, the weekend before MPS awareness day.

Thank you very much :)
