Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page, and thanks to everyone who has sponsored me so far, you are amazing people.
in the year of my 60th I have decided to mark the event with 12 physical challenges in the 12 months of 2024. Something like the 12 labours of Heracles, or Hercules, depending if you are Roman or Greek... but there are 12 of them, 1 a month for 2024.
I have now done 8 of them but there are another 4 to go so well over half way! The list is set out below. This weekend will be a fun one hopefully, a swim down the river Dart from Totnes to Greenway
All of this is being done for the charity associated with the Solent swim (see below), a charity called Aspire
The Charity Aspire provides practical help to people who have been paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury, supporting them from injury to independence. I thank my lucky stars on a daily basis that I am fit and healthy and able to live my life the way I want to. I can't imagine what I would be like if I couldn't have all the adventures and do all the activities in the way I can currently. I am a lucky chap!
Help me to support others who have to have their adventures in a different way.
