I'm taking on the Aspire Channel Swim 2018, swimming the distance of the Channel over 12 weeks to raise money for Aspire. Every eight hours someone is paralysed by a Spinal Cord Injury and Aspire provides the essential equipment, advice, housing and grants that spinal cord injured people need to live their lives independently. 

This is a big challenge, especially as those of us taking part are either injured or not great swimmers! But isn't that the point of a challenge?? Not only do we want to raise money for such a worthy cause, we want to show that regardless of your physical ability you can do anything you set your mind to.
