Story

In June 2024 I will be giving it all I’ve got to swim The English Channel. I will be raising money for the amazing RNLI. They were our Mums chosen charity, and she spent many an hour shaking her tin in Edinburgh to raise some much needed funds, and I was never disappointed to find another RNLI key ring at the bottom of my stocking! They also saved Tristan’s life a few years ago. Having fallen from a sea cliff in Pembrokeshire whilst climbing with his friend. RNLI Pembrokeshire quite literally threw all their resources to get Tris to hospital. I will be forever grateful to them. So, the hard work has started and it will continue to do this charity proud by swimming across the Channel. It won’t be fast, but it will be done with guts and determination! Thank you in advance of your kind donations.

Too many people are still drowning. More than ever we need the RNLI’s help. As a charity, the RNLI depends on our donations so it can go on saving lives and keeping us and our loved ones safe.

RNLI lifesavers are our lifeline. They’re the lifeboat crews who provide 24-hour search and rescue right around the UK and Ireland. The lifeguards keeping watch on 240 of the busiest beaches in the UK and Channel Islands. And the RNLI safety teams and educators working tirelessly to stop people getting into trouble in the first place.

Thank you.
