The Channel for Charity

By Jamie Mawson

Hello Friends,

I'm raising funds to help people with autism live their best life. 

People with autism possess incredible talents but also face significant challenges. They live in a world that is not built for them and expend extraordinary amounts of energy just to navigate everyday life. Your donation will help to enhance their strengths and overcome their challenges to live a full life. 

I'm contributing by attempting to swim the English Channel between 16 to 25 June 2025 (weather permitting). This swim has been 18 months in the making and will take approximately 14 hours (over 32km) in chilly 16-degree waters. No wetsuit. No music. No floatation device. Just a swim cap, goggles, budgy smugglers and hours with my own thoughts. 

This is without a doubt, the biggest challenge I have ever pursued and every dollar raised will spur me on to roll the arm over one more time to reach the French coast. 

All donations are 100% tax deductible and will go towards this well-respected charity. 

Your friend making wakes.  

Jamie
