Football legend Graeme Souness is set to swim the Channel in a bid to raise £1.1million for sufferers of a rare and painful skin condition.
The former Liverpool and Scotland captain, 70, said he was determined to take on the 21-mile crossing after meeting Isla Grist, 14.
She has epidermolysis bullosa, also known as “butterfly skin”, which causes it to tear or blister at the slightest touch.
