I'm taking part in the Solo English Channel Swim on 23/07/2008 to raise money for Mind - The Mental Health Charity and would really welcome your support.
The English Channel is approximately -19 nautical miles (38000 yards) or 35 kilometres (35000 mtrs) - wide at its narrowest point (Shakespeare Beach, Dover to Cap Gris Nez, France). Most swims are a little longer to the land on either side.
The Tides are strong and change direction approximately every 6 hours.
Please take a moment to sponsor me. It's really easy - you can donate online by credit or debit card at the following address:

All donations are secure and sent electronically to Mind - The Mental Health Charity.
If you are a UK taxpayer, Justgiving will automatically reclaim 28% Gift Aid on your behalf, so your donation is worth even more. Please join me in supporting Mind - The Mental Health Charity and a fabulous cause.
