About

Last year I swam 10 miles to raise mental health awareness and funds for Reach Across. This year I’m going to up the challenge and swim a minimum of 21 miles open water around Knockburn Sports Loch in Aberdeenshire. This challenge is really going to test me both physically and mentally, so I would really appreciate your support by way of donation and/or sharing the donation link. The swim will take place on Wednesday 19th July 2023 and will likely take around 12 to 14 hours! I will be taking short breaks every now and then to eat and drink to make sure I survive the swim. Last year I was joined at different parts of the swim by members of TrYthan triathlon club who provided a combination of support swims and a cheering squad of land based supporters. All of which helped me through to completion. No doubt I’ll get the same support this year! When you donate through Givey, the Charity receives 100% of the donation.
