What a great way to start the day doddling up Dodd for the Big Give Christmas Challenge. At 6am this morning Femke and Jo (not Ripple effect Jo - she had small human commitments) from Calvert Lakes headed up Dodd to add the vertical meters to the Everesting total.

The whole Calvert crew had been busy right through the night with some amazing teams braving the elements for our Big Give Christmas Challenge. It's a Doddle!

This week, every donation made through the Big Give website is DOUBLED and every penny goes to helping people with disabilities access adventures here in the beautiful Lake District.

Our very own incredible Jo is powering herself through an absolutely epic challenge! She is using her love of being in water and her incredible strength and determination to raise money for

Over 3 weeks she is aiming to swim the length of the lakes in the Lake District. Yes the LENGTH not the width 😱

Yesterday she completed the whopper, Windermere at 16km!!! 🙌🏻

She has also completed:
Coniston Chillswim last Saturday
Monday - Buttermere and Crummock in the wind and waves
Tuesday - Grasmere and Rydal navigating weeds, branches and silt
Thursday - Loweswater in the mizzle and rain

Will our Aquatic Therapy session help her recover enough to complete Wast Water and Derwent water later this week?

For anyone who would like to donate and help this amazing charity whose work means so much to those it reaches, the link is in the comments.

Meet the team! 👋

We are Jo Dixon and Femke Van Schelven. Both of us are specialist neurological physiotherapists with lots of experience in helping clients living with neurological conditions. We’ve both worked in the NHS for many years and in a wide range of neurological services, but more recently worked together at Calvert Reconnections, where our shared love of active and innovative rehab brought us together.

We’re excited to be launching our new aquatic physiotherapy service based in the exceptional Calvert Lakes hydrotherapy pool. 💦
