I'm taking on the Aspire Channel Swim 2016, swimming the distance of the Channel (but like Dory - I am going to push myself to swim home too! A distance of 44 miles!)  over 12 weeks to raise money for Aspire.

Every eight hours someone is paralysed by a Spinal Cord Injury and Aspire provides the essential equipment, advice, housing and grants that spinal cord injured people need to live their lives independently.

Most of us have had bad back at some point - I recently had a back injury on a trampoline - but I am ok. Others are not so lucky...

This is a big challenge, but the more I raise, the more of a difference I'll make, so please be generous!
