Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am a 15-year-old swimmer in year 10 at Brookvale Groby Learning Campus. I have been swimming competitively since I was 7 and love doing long distance, so when the opportunity came along to swim the Solent to raise money for such an amazing charity, I jumped at the challenge. The longest distance I have swum before is 5k in a pool for the Swimathon last year. Swimming the Solent is a distance of about 3 miles from Portsmouth to the Isle of Wight. We will be doing the swim in early September so the challenge will be a combination of the cold temperatures and open water swimming in the sea.

Thank you for reading my page and for helping me raise money for people with spinal injuries.
