I'm fundraising for Bowel Cancer UK

Bowel Cancer UK is the UK's leading bowel cancer charity and we're determined to save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer.

I’m diving into Swim15 this August and raising money to help save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer. The money I raise will help to provide support and information to patients and their families, fund and support research into bowel cancer and support campaigns for early diagnosis and best treatment and care for all. 

Bowel cancer is the UK's second biggest cancer killer with more than 16,500 people dying annually of a disease that is preventable, treatable and curable.

Still swimming

Thursday 29th Aug
Enjoying the challenge. I wanted to complete it all in the sea but the sewage overflow has stopped my swimming a few times. I’ve done a few pool swimming sessions. Found muscles I didn’t realise i used when swimming and got my beautiful daughter swimming with me too.

Another swim

Thursday 25th Jul
Down the beach tonight with my son for beach football and decided to have a little swim whist there, couldn’t swim far because had my daughter in the water with me and she was a bit nervous of the big waves!!
