Swim for Tash 2

Hey guys,

So last year the rugby players from Lansdowne FC raised an amazing €25,000 for ARC Cancer Support Centres with the 1st ‘Swim 4 Tash’.

So with Covid and all that, this year it has to be a bit different, so I have decided to do ‘Swim 4 Tash 2’.

For the month of February I have decided to do a swim everyday in the Irish Sea to again raise money for ARC Cancer Support Centres in memory of my late mum Tash who’s 2nd anniversary is on March 2nd 2021.

The reason I have decided to do this is because the month of February is when the Irish Sea reaches its coldest temperatures and if you know me at all you know I HATE the cold. I can barely stand the Irish Sea in summer, but if you think about what the cancer patients have to go through with chemotherapy, cold caps, and all that other crap, a swim a day in the freezing cold water is nothing in comparison.

I know for a fact that my mum would NEVER have done this as she barely got in the sea on holidays... but I know she would be so proud of me for doing it. ARC Cancer Support Centres are such an amazing charity whose services are free of charge to men & women affected by cancer and their loved ones, and I can testify as they helped support me & my family before, during & after Mum’s awful cancer journey.

If you could help me raise money for this amazing charity by donating any amount I would be extremely grateful.....any amount at all will help!!

One of the very last things my Mum said to me was to “be brave, stay strong” so Mum this one’s for you.

Jemima ❤️
