Just like @Malala, I am deeply worried about women, minorities and human rights activists in Afghanistan.?

I stand with Malala as she calls on global, regional and local powers to call for an immediate ceasefire, provide urgent humanitarian aid and protect refugees and civilians.??

The rights and voices of vulnerable people in Afghanistan must not be violated or silenced ?.

I usually hold up a sign after each of my swims but I was very ill after my last swim so my lovely crew Carol and Steven Breiter took this pic of me the next day when I was feeling much more spritely!?)
