I'm taking on my 7th consecutive Aspire Channel Swim 2020, swimming the distance of the English Channel over 12 weeks to raise money for Aspire. 

I wasn't sure I would be able to do it this year, but pools are now allowed to open again and this year Aspire needs our support more than ever.  Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic they have continued to support people with Spinal Cord Injury, even though myself and many of my colleagues have been furloughed since April and we don't know what the future will hold.

Every four hours someone is paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury and Aspire provides the essential equipment, advice and housing that spinal cord injured people need to live their lives independently. This is a big challenge, but the more I raise, the more of a difference I'll make, so please be generous!  Find out more about Aspire at aspire.org.uk
