Story

So I’ve been thinking about this one for a while. My idea of swimming normally involves keeping my hair dry and make up intact, so this is a wee bit out of my comfort zone 🥴
I know how much of a huge challenge this will be for Donna and Scott, both physically and mentally, and as a member of the Prosecco Posse (#TeamNelson) I’ve decided to join them in this mad challenge. We will be doing a 20km open water relay swim in St Mary’s Loch in the Scottish Borders, on 16th May, in memory of their much loved son Christopher Nelson while raising funds for the Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity (Team ECHC). 
Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'Give Now' button. The more people that know about Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
