Paddy Freeland is swimming the English Channel for Charity
Hello - thanks for reading. I am fundraising by attempting to swim the length of the English Channel (33.700 Kilometres) in a month this November to raise some money for charity. With GiveWheel I'm hoping to split it into three causes that are really close to me (obviously I couldn't decide on one).
I've taken a lot of solace in recently getting more into swimming. the cut off - the relaxation, the routine. But this is definitely ambitious!
In terms of donating - I wanted to do a past-present-future - a three way split.
Donating to a cause close to my heart in the past - the British Heart Foundation in memory of my father. https://bhf.org.uk/
For the Present - Target Ovarian Cancer in memory of the wonderful Sue Timoney-Allen. https://targetovariancancer.org.uk/
And for the Future - War Child. There are too many children in the world currently living in war zones. https://www.warchild.org.uk/
I hope you can spare some money for either one of the causes, and hope that you will follow me on this crazy venture.
