Hi, I'm Wayne. Thanks for reading my story - I'd really love your support.

From 5th September 2023 I'm planning to swim the 80+ nautical miles from Bowness-on-Solway to Silverdale. I've got a maximum of 8 days to get it done.

All money raised will go to the Brathay Trust to support their work in Cumbrian communities with young people. There will be a direct impact in the place I live, and love

Why am I doing this?

As a pre-big-birthday challenge, I'd always wanted to swim the Windermere One Way event, followed by attempting to cross the English Channel. I couldn't secure a Channel Pilot, so a friend (you need to come forward for your reward) suggested a challenge closer to home... 'I dunno, like the Cumbrian coast?' and the seed was sown!

Already a few brilliant businesses have signed up to sponsor me and a growing team of people will support me before and during the event itself. Could you donate, or sponsor me through your business?

If you'd like to get involved, please drop me a message via instagram or twitter @SingletonWayne - I'd love to hear from you - bear in mind it might take time to get back to you!

Thank you

Wayne
