What an incredible achievement! ππββοΈ
Our swimmer Josh has completed a solo English Channel swim, swimming around 44 miles and spending 15 hours and 39 minutes in the water. With tides and currents pushing him further and two changes in tide along the way, this was an incredible test of endurance, determination and resilience.
But this challenge was about more than the swim. Josh took on the English Channel to raise money for four charities close to his heart:
π Hullbridge Parkinson's CafΓ© β supporting people living with Parkinson's
π€ RNLI β saving lives at sea
π¦
Phoenix Heroes β supporting Armed Forces veterans and families
ποΈ Endometriosis UK β raising awareness, supporting sufferers and funding research
A huge congratulations to Josh on this incredible achievement. Weβre so proud to have him as part of the SESC community! ππ
If you'd like to support Josh and these four charities, you can donate through his fundraising page: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/josh-the-showman-cox
