Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Many of you will know that Denise and Anna have both experienced Covid over the last 18 months.
After 8 weeks of sickness in Feb-Apr 2020, Denise has a Long Covid diagnosis and is working hard to fulfil her rehab programme which will take 1 to 2 years.
Anna had Covid over Christmas 2020 and is still working to recover fully from the virus and has been a real support to Denise both before, during and after Covid - including pledging to make this swim happen for them both!
On 01 May when Denise started her rehab she was able to swim 10 lengths of a 20 metre pool before the pain and fatigue kicked in! Anna has pledged to use this opportunity to regain physical strength and help with her recovery process!
Throughout the pandemic both have known people very close to them struggle with their mental health, or have a personal understanding of the condition and recognise the acute shortness of trained professionals able to support people struggling with it now.
What better motivator than to HIT the goal of each swimming 40 lengths on the 7th of August to raise money for MIND and help support such a worthwhile charity as part of their journey?
We hope to raise £250 as our target and if you are able to help motivate us and support MIND we would greatly appreciate it! Every £1 helps!
Thank you!!
