The Big Push

With just eight weeks to go before my Channel swim, it's time to really start to plug the fundraising.

Esta is approaching every school in the Worcester area she has any dealings with, but if you know any schools (or businesses!) who may benefit from an educational/promotional talk, please do let me (and them) know.  I will cover the concept of commitment, and how something like a Channel swim takes a year's worth of hard work and training.  I'll also talk about Acorns, of course, including what they do, and why I'm subsequently taking on such an insane challenge - considering I'd never swum further than 2km when I came up with the notion of taking on the Everest of open water swims!

I am also due to hold a stall at one or two school fetes in the next few weeks, complete with a collection bucket and happily handing out flyers.

If anyone can think of any other promotional or fundraising ideas, please do get in touch.

Feel free to continue to direct donors here:  https://www.justgiving.com/Alan-Gale1/

Many thanks,

Al Gale
