My story

I'm not much of a swimmer tbh, I love cold water dipping and was wondering how I could push this further, and then I had the frankly daft idea of swimming the Channel which seemed suitably mad. However, as mentioned,. I'm not much of a swimmer, so cunningly I roped in a bunch of friends, customers and even a competitor to join me - Team Aquanimity
was born and we're doing a relay this year.

We're all raising money for brain and mental health charities and I have chosen the excellent guys at The Restless Leg Syndrome RLS UK as they do amazing work in helping to understand this condition which was one of the major contributory factors in my Mum's death in 2023.

They're a really small charity and I know that every penny I raise will be put to amazing use, so please give whatever you can, after all I'm going to be swimming the Channel in October.

Thank you in advance for your donation, it honestly means the world to me, and hopefully it will change the world of people suffering from this shitty condition.
