Frustration

It now looks like I'm going to have to move my swim to 2012. The support that I need just simply isn't happening right now so I'm being left with no other choice. It's so frustrating when you're putting in all this hard work without getting anything back. I'm constantly asking people for help financially and promotionally and nothings coming up. It's fair to say that i'm feeling deflated - not by the amount of swimming but by the lack of support.

    Dont give up so soon. There are many ways to fundraise, I have been doing it for over 13 (over 300,000 euro) years for sick children. Crumlin Hospital www.cmrf.org. Our national hospital for kids.

    There are also many friends in the swimming fraternity on the channel group also. You cant take fundraising personal, I dont know how many times I got so mad when people didnt put there hands in their pockets to support the kids. People and I mean all of us only realise when it comes to our own doorstep.
    Look forward to your blog
