Take A Breath

By Caroline Hawkins

I’m swimming to make a difference!

As you know I have chronic asthma which is normally well managed.  This year I turn 64 and I am hoping to swim a mile (64.4) lengths by my birthday at the end of June.  Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. Every pound I raise takes us closer to a world where everyone breathes clean air with healthy lungs.

Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UK's nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice to someone in need.

Any donations you can give are hugely appreciated thank you for supporting me and everyone out there living with a lung condition.

And away…

I’ve done the first 14 lengths took a breath and swam my first 14 lengths in Oundle School Pool all in the 2m deep section!  I’m not the bravest as I like to touch the bottom occasionally but it’s been a leap of faith to put my big girl swimming costume on and go for it😂I might even manage 2 miles but I’ll decide on that later!
