Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am going to swim 22 miles in 12 weeks, that is approximately 1700 lengths of the pool. Why? Because diabetes is a terrible disease that affects millions of lives and is poorly understood.

My gran had it and the resulting bad circulation resulted in her death. My mum has it and is struggling with short term memory loss, that could be a result of the diabetes, and every day struggles with illness. 

There is a high chance that I will develop type 2 diabetes and I will not sit back and let it come quietly. I’ll be swimming every one of those 22 miles for my gran, my mum, my future self and the future of my children.

Please help me raise a little money to help this wonderful charity make amazing progress.
