On the 11th of June I will be swapping the warmth of a pool for the cold of Lake Windermere to swim 5km CLEFT. CLEFT is focused on providing permanent, sustainable ways to improve cleft care both in the UK and overseas. Broadly speaking, they can be described in two categories. Firstly through sponsorship of research projects in the UK to help identify the likely causes of clefts and secondly, by supporting projects in lower-income countries to help provide long-term treatment and care for less privileged people born with clefts.

Any donation, no matter how small, will make a difference and would be hugely appreciated.

Thank you
Clare Rivers
