John Kelly has raised over 3K for RLS-UK. Thank you so much. It is an amazing achievement. What a hero!

John's fundraising page is still open. He is raising funds in memory of his dear mum Rosie who suffered terribly with RLS and sadly died last year. He started training in August.

The big swim went ahead on 5 October but the team did not quite make the crossing. The tide turned 3 miles off the French Coast. As a team they have raised over 12K for three different charities. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ’ͺ

Fantastic achievement. I remember his mum died of a brain bleed after falling several times trying to walk off severe augmentation.So terribly sad.

What an incredible achievement. His biog start with the sentence : "I'm not much of a swimmer tbh". Just amazing.
