About

Hello everyone, if you don't know me personally my name is Kelly Lowndes and I'm a bit of a Backstroke fanatic.

On the 16th September 2018, I am attempting to swim Backstroke accross one of the most famous stretches of water in the world - the English Channel.

I've decided to use my swim as a chance to 'give back' to the wonderful charities and organisations close to my heart. I have selected a few and with your support, I would love to create an awareness and purpose for these tireless like minded communities of giving people.

I have chosen to raise $16,918 as a 'goal', however whatever total we can raise together before the end of 2018 (lower or higher), will be a whole team achievement!

16,918 is the date of my swim, the 16th September 2018 or $16,918 is my goal. Fundraising for each charity/organisation in hope of sharing the proceeds.

From the bottom of my heart, I wish to thank you personally for helping support my swim - by supporting these amazing charities.
