Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The staff at North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust do fantastic work, and I'd like to help boost the general charitable fund that helps with providing some extras - equipment or specialist training, for example.  This fund is used for all kinds of different purposes, but always to benefit patient care.  I'd be delighted if you could support me on 11th June, when I'll be donning an unflattering wetsuit and braving the chilly waters of Windermere Lake for a 1 mile swim.

I'll be posting some updates over the weeks leading up to 11th June.  There may even be some photo blogging, if I can get the technology to work, and if the images are not too distressing....
