Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

If you are reading this, you will probably already know that I work for the Percy Hedley Foundation - a fantastic charity that helps children, young people, adults and their families that have cerebral palsy and communication difficulties to lead full and active lives.

Percy Hedley's Finance Director, Sarah Turner, has set herself a challenge to commemorate her 40th Birthday - she will swim 40 lengths of a 25 metre pool, every day for 40 days and will find 40 people to swim 40 lengths with her on each of the 40 days, asking each of them to try to raise a minimum of 40 pounds .....a bit of a theme going on here !  Sarah started on her 40th Birthday, 27th September, and her challenge is going really well.

Well, I am one of the 40 and if you could dig deep and sponsor me I would be truly grateful.  We have an appeal at the moment to raise £1m to build a new hydrotherapy pool - a massive amount of money but with lots of help we will do it!

If you could spare £2 - the minimum donation on Just Giving - that would be absolutely brilliant - if you could spare £4 to keep the theme going (sort of ) then that would be amazing.

I did my challenge today in 40 minutes and am over the moon!  Please help me to help Sarah to help Percy Hedley!
