Personal message
We are swimming this year's Midmar Mile for Sadie - our lovely princess who passed away on the 10 July 2014 - we miss her every single day.
We'd like to use this special event to raise money for Rare Diseases Society of SA, who do research into rare diseases and aims to ensure that all Rare disease patients receive access to treatment, and supportive care for improved quality of life.
Sam and Amy are swimming a mile on Saturday and Sunday, Deon will swim 2 events on Saturday and Salli will swim only one mile on the Saturday.
Sadie will be in our hearts and on our minds with every stroke that we take.

Rare Diseases South Africa, formerly the Rare Disease Society of South Africa, was founded in 2013 by Kelly du Plessis. Founded out of personal need after the diagnosis of Kelly’ son, it quickly became evident that there was a lack of support and awareness on rare diseases in South Africa.
