They raised over £2800! Thank you too to Lois and Nicola who also swam the Serpentine for TCF raising £1800 and £260 respectively. Lois swam in memory of her daughter Eliza. She told us, “I did it, I loved it and I got the medal, it was an amazing experience, and a great atmosphere. I swam with dragonflies and swans, the sun shone down and the water was not too cold. I have found tiny moments of peace during all my swim training, during my swimming I have thought about all those who are in the same unimaginable place that we are and I thank you for giving me this opportunity to help with the support that you give to families and loved ones” Lorraine Worrall organised a car rally in memory of Joe Haynes, raising over £1000.
