Leanne swims for The Hive

Hi my name is Leanne and I love to swim. I try to go as regularly as I can – it helps me relax, it helps my mental health and I enjoy it.

I have decided to use my regular swimming sessions to my advantage to not only improve my fitness but raise money for The Hive in the process!

I work at The Hive and I love working there. I love the people we meet, I love the feeling of helping people, I love the passion that the community shares for helping each other. We try and do as much as we can to offer out for all the Community at The Hive, but sometimes these things come at a cost. Fundraising is just one way we generate an income which means we don’t always have to pass that cost onto our Community, whilst still keeping The Hive buzzing.

I swim at Grand Fitness (based in Rendezvous Hotel) whose pool is 13.7m in length. When I go, I typically do around 50 lengths and try to go 2 times (3 sometimes if I can fit it in!) a week. I have been set a challenge by Jill to complete 600 lengths throughout the month of June.

Please support this fundraiser. It would mean a lot to me to see something that I enjoy doing AND will help my fitness raising money for the charity and the community I am passionate about.
