Story

Peter has never shied away from a challenge whilst raising money for charities for causes close to his heart. From sky diving, abseiling and running marathons to trekking the Great Wall of China! This time he has enlisted Alex as his teammate, together they are training hard to swim across Lake Windermere 🏊‍♂️ 🏊‍♂️ #swimdreamteam

The lads want to raise essential funds for Willow Wood Hospice, it’s a wonderful place that provides essential services to people with life limiting conditions. The Community Palliative Care Nurses in particular are amazing. Caring for patients and supporting their families, working around the clock 24/7, they really do go above and beyond. It isn’t just a job for them but a vocation. 

Peters beloved sister Christine sadly passed away recently after a battle with cancer, at home surrounded by her loving family. Willow Wood provided care that was second to none, we’d like to thank them for everything and support them by asking you to sponsor Peter and Al in completing the tough, daunting task they have set themselves….  of swimming across Lake Windermere! What ever you can spare will go a long way. 

Thank you on behalf of Peter, Al and all of Christines family. X
