Cathie Swims for Sparks - completed in 54:29

Hi everyone,
On Saturday 31 August 2013 I will be taking the plunge in the Great London Swim to raise money for Bromley Sparks. This entails swimming a mile in the Thames at the Royal Victoria Docks in London wearing a wet suit, goggles and an orange swim hat. Won't I look great! Bromley Sparks is a self advocacy group run by and for people with a learning difficulty to ensure their voice is heard. Their work includes sitting on local panels, liaising with service providers and producing reports on things that are important to them. They do much of their own fundraising and are supported in their work by Advocacy for All, an independent advocacy organisation. Bromley Sparks also holds regular meetings for members including the healthy lifestyles group at which I am a volunteer supporter. Please sponsor my dip in the Thames and help ensure Bromley Sparks can continue their fantastic work. Any donations will be gratefully received. Thank you! Cathie
