I'm taking part in the November Swim Challenge

This November, 8-year-old Anita is taking on a huge challenge — swimming 5 kilometres for Dementia UK!

Anita’s inspiration is her lovely Grangi, who is living with dementia. Anita wants to help raise money to support families like hers who are affected by this tough condition.

The biggest distance Anita has swum before is 400 m, so this is a massive leap — and she’ll be getting up early to swim before school in chilly November! 🥶💪

Please cheer her on and support her cause if you can — every donation helps families get the care and advice they need. 💙

✨Last swim this morning — challenge completed! 🎉

Anita wants to say a huge thank-you to everyone who sponsored her and cheered her on throughout the month.

The hardest part was keeping motivated while swimming lengths, often as the only child in the pool, but she stuck with it and her swimming has improved so much. We’re really proud of her.

Now she’s off for a day with Granji to celebrate and make some lovely memories. 

Almost there!

Sunday 23rd Nov
Anita is so close to finishing her challenge — just 0.4km to go!

It’s been such a busy November, with the Urdd cooking competition and lots of long walks, but she’s kept going. Just one more swim left, and every single dip this month has been further than her personal best when she started.

An absolutely epic effort from Anita — we’re nearly there! 💙🏊‍♀️

First day of the challenge!

Saturday 1st Nov
Thanks everyone for all you support. I am really happy. Anita
