Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving.

I am swimming the English Channel with a group of FAB ladies. We all live in Turnchapel in Plymouth.

We are a group of friends who started by doing a dip a day in October for another charity.

Then one day someone came up with the mad idea for 6 of us to swim the channel in a team. Meaning we all swim in the channel for and hour and are tagged by one of our team. We keep rotating an hour at a time until we reach France.

Some of my amazing team mates weren’t even swimming Front crawl when we started this. Their determination and dedication has been amazing.

Mencap are passionate about changing the world for everyone with a learning disability.

Mencap is about valuing and supporting people with a learning disability , and their families and carers.

Their vision is for the UK to be the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy and healthy lives.

We hope you will see as we do that this is well worth your support and you can pledge what you can to ensure they thrive
