My tutor group and I are trying to raise money to support the Red Cross with their ongoing work in the Ukraine conflict. We are holding many fund raisers in school, but I wanted to try to raise some money personally....

So on the 4th of June, come rain or shine, I will be taking a 15 minute plunge into the freezing cold Irish Sea!! It may not seem like much to many of you, but I am not a sea goer, and I am genuinely terrified of the things beneath the waves.... it makes me shudder!! 

I will be getting cold and wet to raise awareness of the ongoing conflict and humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. Please show your support by donating to the cause. Every £1 goes to help people in dire need of rescue, of food, water, shelter and safety.

I'm raising money for British Red Cross and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate a lot or a little. Anything helps. Thank you for your support. I've included information from British Red Cross below:

Millions of people have no safe place to call home. More than 3 million have already left Ukraine, while countless more are still trapped underground, taking cover from the shelling, and desperate for a safe escape.

Hundreds of thousands of people still have no food, no water, no medical care, and no heat or electricity.

Red Cross teams have been working around the clock to get critical care to those who need it most, both in Ukraine and its bordering countries. But with recent freezing temperatures, and ongoing violence, an enormous number of people urgently need help right now.

Please support my fundraiser if you can. Thank you
