Coming out of retirement - for charity!
To light to fire underneath me, and force me back in the pool, on September 20th, I am participating in the iconic Swim Serpentine to raise money for Rethink Mental Illness.
While this may be an ADHD fixation, I’ve signed up now! A 3km swim in the past might have been a breeze, but I will actually have to train for this one…
I’m asking if you could fuel my progress with anything you’ve got to give - even if not a donation, drop me a message to check I’m actually doing some training!!
The money raised is going towards Rethink mental illness, and they phrase the importance of raising money much better than I can:
“It is so important to have access to resources and support. That's why I am taking part in this event - to help Rethink Mental Illness continue its mission of improving the lives of those affected by severe mental health issues.
Every donation counts towards my fundraising goal!
Your contribution will help provide vital services such as support groups, and educational resources for individuals and families affected by mental illness.”
