On Saturday 13th July, Lewis Carless swam further than he had ever done before in his life, to raise money for the Birmingham Childrens Hospital. Lewis, who is only 8 years old, has a brother called Mason who is a regular visitor at Birmingham Childrens Hospital.

So Lewis wanted to do something to help the hospital. Lewis swam the 5000 meters in 2 hours and 19 minutes, and has raised over £700 so far for the hospital. Everyone at Beeches is very proud of Lewis and his massive achievement.
