๐โโ๏ธ๐ Will & Maresaโs TOFS Swimming Challenge 2026 ๐๐โโ๏ธ
Hi everyone! ๐
Welcome to our fundraising page, and thank you so much for taking the time to visit. ๐
This year, Will and I are taking on our second swimming challenge to raise money for TOFS, a charity that means more to our family than words could ever express. ๐
Last year, I completed the challenge on my own, swimming an incredible 5km (200 lengths) in just one week. Thanks to the amazing generosity of our family, friends and supporters, we raised over ยฃ1,500 for TOFS! ๐โโ๏ธ๐
