Story

Hi everyone! I will be carrying out my 5000 for 500 charity swim for Make 2nds Count. This is a close charity for me because a colleague of mine lost their wife last Christmas to Breast Cancer, and the company I work for have been raising funds for M2C since.

What is 5000 for 500? this is a 5km swim that is attempted to be completed in 3 hours and the aim is to raise a minimum of £500.

I will be carrying out this swim at ROKO Health Club, Gillingham, who have kindly dedicated me a lane on the 31st October.
Please find the link below and all donations will be greatly appreciated.



It’s estimated that 35,000 people are currently living with secondary breast cancer in the UK yet only 7% of the National funding for cancer goes towards this incurable disease. Make 2nds Count aim to address this imbalance. Please give generously!
