Will Ellis, who is known for his role in EastEnders, will be swimming to a wind farm located off the coast of Sussex in order to raise funds for a charity in the community.
Mr. Ellis, who portrays Theo Hawthorne on the BBC program, is collecting funds for Amaze, a charity that supports families with children and young individuals who have special educational requirements and disabilities.
The performer, who has received help from a charitable organization for his son who cannot speak, expressed gratitude for having a platform that can be used for good.
He expressed his excitement about raising funds for the charity, mentioning how the organization's strong connections and continuous support have been pivotal in their efforts.
Mr Ellis plans to swim all the way to the Rampion offshore wind farm, located 16 miles away from Brighton beach.
The swimming event will begin at 3:00 AM British Summer Time on Saturday.
His comment was that waking up early is something that must be done, even though he does not expect to get much rest the night before.
I'm feeling anxious, but I believe it's a positive feeling.
"When I begin to experience pain, I will consider the larger perspective."
He stated: "Many view the Rampion farm as unattractive, but I believe we should be appreciating it instead."
"It's a gorgeous building that produces sustainable energy."
Mr. Ellis is getting ready to swim across the English Channel in August.
