Hi, my name is Barney and i'am 9 years old. In June I will be swimming a mile for Chernobyl Children Life Line. This charity helps children who are suffering from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. This summer I'am having a boy to stay at my house for a month on a respite holiday.

I have never swum a mile before.  It is 72 lengths of my swimming pool.  PLEASE SPONSOR ME!
