All of us enjoyed the experience. It was a bit tiring, the water
was cold, but every second of it was good fun. The Youth Cancer Trust is a
local charity through which we can help someone in the community and some of
us have been affected by cancer in one way or another. It’s good to know we
can help in our little way and have fun at the same time!"
