Story

Hello to all our generous friends and family out there

WE DID IT!!! 92 laps in 50 minutes and we are feeling very happy and proud.

In all there was 17 people swimming, 4 pools and 3 nations!!! (Penrith, London, Aberdeen and Brisbane). So lots of energy was burned on the 3rd Feb!

Your kind donation will be used to help support other parents and families who have lost their own Kieran. The money will be used towards research, support, keeping Sands running as a worthwhile and important charity, a memorial in Penrith Cemetry and will go towards helping parents and families at Carlisle hospital who have suffered a loss of a baby.

This is to honour Kieran's memory and he would have been very proud of all of us.

Many thanks for all your love and support.
