I'm going to be swimming over 24 hours as part of a relay team of 3.

The challenge is in the endurance, the team work and camaraderie to support each other for the duration. It’s the 2am cold swims when I just want to sleep. It’s the hugs of relief at the end of each hour knowing I've just ticked another hour off.

I'm doing it to raise money for Level Water who provide 1-to-1 swimming lessons for children with disabilities. It’s knowing that, one day, they might be able to take part in this challenge with their friends or family because of your donations and support.

One lesson costs just £15. please give what you can to support me!
