Fundraising Continues
After the sucess of the sponsored swim and the people involved still wanting to do more, living sober has a new fundraising plan underway.
After we swam the English channel in aid of Children in need we decided that was nowhere near enough so after some discussions we have come up with a sponsored swim of over 1000 miles. Obviously we won’t be doing this all at once but spread over the course of a year.
Keep an eye out for further details.
