About Sheila Brown

Profile picture

Hello my name is Sheila Brown.Sometimes Sheels, Mis B, Sheila “B” and even Sheila “B” Devotion! 
this will be the 4 th year of competing in 30 Bays and I absolutely love it! To swim out on a good day or even not so good day and see the island from the sea and a different angle . It just a “well how blessed are we” moment. The island and shoreline is so beautiful and each side so very different.It’s exciting . Various friends swim with me and help me in my quest and that is a friendship connecting time. These are good to be alive moments.

The sponsorship monies go to National Trust for Jersey and to Jersey Hospice Care. Both causes I hold very close to my heart. 
All I can ask is please help and sponsor me I thoroughly believe in this and would like to raise cash to help these causes .

if you have a special person in mind I will be happy to swim for them just let me know there name .

please please can you kindly donate …. Sheila B 

 

Fundraising Information

This fundraising page benefits the following good cause:


National Trust for Jersey & Jersey Hospice Care

National Trust for Jersey

The National Trust for Jersey is an independent charitable organisation, which permanently protects and cares for over 1,754 vergées of land, 19,000 metres of footpath and 30 historic buildings for the benefit of the Island. Established in 1936, the Trust is totally self-funding; it currently costs £3,790 per day to run the organisation.

The Trust's main objective is to permanently preserve and safeguard places of historic interest and natural beauty for the benefit of the Island. This is mainly achieved through the acquisition of properties and land either though donations, bequests or purchases.
We would like to encourage every Islander that loves  and cares for our beautiful Island to become a member of the Trust. 

Jersey Hospice Care

Jersey Hospice Care is the island’s Hospice, offering specialist palliative care, free of charge, to all islanders with life-limiting illnesses, irrespective of cause or diagnosis.
Many people think that hospices are places of sadness focused on death and dying. In fact our focus is on living and living well right up to the end, making memories and spending time with your family.

Our care is about so much more than the specialist palliative treatment of a person’s physical symptoms. It’s a total philosophy of care, offering spiritual and emotional support that extends to family members and carers. For each person we are privileged to care for, we only get one chance at the end of life to get it right and that’s why we strive every day to go that extra mile for our patients and their families, to make extraordinary care our ‘ordinary’. Helping each person we care for, to get the best out of every day and to make each day count.
We couldn’t do this without the generosity of our local community and the support of our amazing volunteers.
In 2019 we launched our out-reach service for babies, children and young people with a life-limited condition. This included our Tots & Toys group for babies and children up to five years old. This service is in addition to our Emotional Support service for children and young people and their families, which we started in 2017.

About 30 Bays in 30 Days 2021 Jersey

Following the success of the last 5 years, the '30 Bays in 30 Days' swimming challenge which raises funds for both Jersey Hospice Care and The National Trust for Jersey will be launched again for July 2021. This year, we are hopeful we will be able to stage group opening and closing swims, more information will be provided in due course but we do encourage all those registered to start the challenge on 1st July and swim a minimum of 30 strokes, 30 times in bays local to them. Participants can pick their favourite bays or if they want an extra challenge, can attempt to swim in all 30 during the month of July. Participants may carry on swimming in August to complete as many swims or bays as they have challenged themselves to complete! 

All participants are encouraged to follow the Government’s guidance at all times for the duration of the Challenge and please only swim in the suggested Bays listed on our the website.
