Year 8 Swimmer Smashes Fundraising Target!

Congratulations to Grace in Year 8 who is currently at nearly 300% of her distance target on a sponsored swim for Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Grace is a keen swimmer, competing regularly for Garston and representing Liverpool in national competitions. When she heard about the sponsored swim for the internationally acclaimed children's hospital she thought it was a great way to use her talents in a positive and charitable way.

Her target was to swim 8km during October, and she's already over a massive 22km and still going! She's not only smashed her distance target, but reached and exceeded her very ambitious £500 funding target.

Well done to Grace on a fantastic fundraising effort and we wish her every success as she continues with her swim!
