I’m aching all over – but I’ve done it! Toy Appeal swim completed
I’VE done it!
I managed to complete my annual sponsored swim today to raise funds for the Kevin Jenkins OBE Newham Christmas Toy Appeal 2022.
I’m happy to have done it and am now aching all over in places where I didn’t know I had places!
Now all we have to do is meet the target of £750 we set.
Some of the money raised has already been spent on new toys for youngsters, by the charity organising the appeal, Ambition, Aspire, Achieve, of which I am a trustee
