Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

At 2am on the 3rd August this year, I took part in a relay team of 6 swimmers who successfully swam across the 22 mile ! After 14 hours, 25 minutes and 27 seconds, a few chunders and plenty of jellyfish, we made safely it to . Why, I hear you say…it was all to raise as much money as possible for Aspire.

Aspire is a fantastic charity supporting those with spinal cord injuries to create opportunity, choice and independence. Please take a look at the following video for an idea of the great work that Aspire does http://www.aspire.org.uk/aboutus/AspireVideo.aspx

We’ve been training hard to prepare for the cold conditions, seasickness, swimming in the dark, not to mention the jellyfish!! Every £1 we raise will make it all worthwhile!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you for your support, love Claire x
