We enable people with disabilities to achieve their full potential

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I intend to swim across Bassenthwaite Lake to work every working day in July from Wythop to the Boat House at the Calvert Trust.  The distance is just over 1km and it will total 21 days.  I may adapt the swims around the weather, morning or evening, should it be required, and some days I hope to swim there and back.  I intend to record all the swims on Strava.  I hope some of you that are looking at this page will join me for a width :)

I want to fundraise for the Calvert Lakes to support a fantastic Local Charity in the Lake District whose mission it is to enable people with disabilities to achieve their potential through challenge of adventurous activities in the country side in order for them to develop, change perceptions and make positive and lasting changes to their lives.

The Lake District Calvert Trust provides residential outdoor activity courses for people of all ages with physical, sensory, learning, behavioural and/or mental disabilities. Its mission is to challenge disability through outdoor adventure. Pioneering equipment adaptations, and intensive, instructor-led activity programmes (that include climbing, abseiling, canoeing, sailing, horse/trap driving, archery, orienteering and paragliding), provide an environment whose aims are to teach, challenge, motivate, engender confidence in ability, promote independence, and foster integration. All instructors are highly trained and specialist qualified, and the facilities are specially adapted and fully accessible to all. The Lake District Calvert Trust provides a unique and life-changing experience for those with disabilities, who are encouraged to believe that it’s what you CAN do that counts.
