All my life, my favourite place to be has been the water. It's where I've learned so much about myself, where I've had some of my happiest times, and where I've challenged myself both mentally & physically. This year I have decided to massively test these once again by entering this amazing event, the Aquasphere Triple Crown Swim Series.

Three End2End swims:

• 24th June - Coniston Water, 5.25 miles
• 15th July - Ullswater, 7.5 miles 
• 2nd September - Windermere, 11 miles

The main reason for doing this is to raise money for an amazing charity called Level Water that help children like Anzah experience the water like I have been fortunate enough to do throughout my life by providing 1-2-1 lessons to children with disabilities:

"Anzah has cerebellum ataxia which means she has a physical development delay. Before Level Water lessons she had a severe phobia of the water. She didn't even like taking a bath. Through our lessons she has slowly gained confidence in herself, in her condition and understands how to adapt to the water. When she floats and realises she's doing it by herself she screams and cheers with joy. For Anzah, it's not about distance. It's about being in control. Feeling confident and being able to feel the joy that water can give.A swimming lesson for a child with disabilities costs just £15. But that £15 might just change their life."

Any donations for this would be massively appreciated, and will hugely motivate me, knowing it will be providing life-changing classes to so many children.

Thanks in advance :)
