For those of you that haven't heard, blind Paralympian Gerrard Gosens is attempting to swim the english channel today. He departed the UK at 3am this morning and is hoping to reach France sometime this afternoon. As I write this he has been on the go for 8 hours non stop and is still going strong!
All this is to raise awareness for Great Dreams, a mentoring charity focused on helping young people achieve their dreams.
We wholeheartedly support this endeavour and Gerrard for putting in such a fantastic effort in the name of awareness.
