SUPER splasher Jack Winder is not only a great swimmer, he is also a top tot when it comes to fundraising. This summer, together with parents Richard and Shelley, the 18-month-old raised £320 for baby charity Tommys.
Young swimmers from Water Babies classes have been taking part in sponsored pirate and mermaid themed events and Jack was the highest fundraiser in the Salisbury area.
“We were personally motivated to fundraise as we sadly had a stillborn baby in 2008,” said Mrs Winder. “We were lucky to go on to have Jack William in 2010 and he helps to carry William’s name and memory on. We’re just so thrilled that we’ve been able to help make such a difference long term.”
