As you might know, if you follow a few of the posts on my blog, I’m heading to Ecuador over Easter. In fact, Ecuador is only 70 days away! Myself and another lecturer in my college have started fundraising for the trip, aiming to collect money for the trip, and for the charities that we will be visiting. To this end, I will be making full use of my half term by swimming the equivalent of the channel in the local swimming pools. My calculations make it about 22 miles, which is 1413 lengths. I’m aiming to do this as quick as possible, where swimming times allow!

I have set up a fundraising page, which I’ve linked to below, and I’ve set myself a target of £200 which I hope I can reach, with the kindness of people, which I can put towards the trip and charities we will visit. I’ll be sure to post all about the trip when I return and show photos of the places which the money has contributed to.

If you have some spare change, and would like to donate, please find the link below. Thank you very much!
