Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm going to be swimming 10km down the River Dart to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support on 22nd September 2012. (That's the same distance as walking along the River Thames from the Tower of London to Battersea Bridge).  And if that isn't enough (!), I'm doing it 3 days after London Fashion Week ends. For those of you lucky enough to be in the fashion industry, you will appreciate the long hours and lack of sleep involved for the 2 weeks that it takes from our lives!

I've chosen Macmillan, the largest cancer care and support charity in the UK as my charity because over the last 15 years they've been there to provide much needed support for family and friends fighting their battles with cancer, and I feel like it's my time to give something back. "One in three of us will get cancer and it’s the toughest thing most of us will ever face. If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, or a loved one has, you’ll want a team of people in your corner supporting you every step of the way."
