On Friday 12th September 2014, exactly 458 days after waking up with the ridiculous idea of swimming the English Channel, I was rewarded for my efforts by being able to hand over a cheque to Acorns totaling £12,800.

The event was attended by Acorns, the challenge sponsors, my family, the film crew documenting my Channel 'journey', and my boat crew:

  • Rebecca Widdowson, representing Hallmark Hulme
  • James Howard representing Kendall Wadley
  • David Watts, Jorj Jarvie and Mandie Fitzgerald, representing Acorns
  • Wayne Isaac, manager of David Lloyd's
  • Ali MacLeod, my trusted boat crew
  • Simon Fall-Taylor from FT Images
  • Mum and Graham, my step-dad

The amount raised via my JustGiving site is now in excess of this figure, and we are closing in on topping £13,000.  Please feel free to help us!  :0)
