On the 10 June I am taking part in the Great North Swim – this is an open water swim in Lake Windermere, I have never done an open water swim before so this will be quite a challenge!

My training is taking me from Bramley Baths to Brockwell Lido.

It would be great if you would consider sponsoring me, raising money for St Gemma’s Hospice, Leeds. This is the link for the Just Giving website –  https://t.co/zHw4XDv1vR  or go on to my website so you can click through to the Just Giving page.

I will be swimming with fantastic Leeds Labour Cllrs – Jools Heselwood, Jonathan Pryor, Helen Hayden, John Illingworth, Jane Dowson, Lucinda Yeadon and Adam Ogilvie.
