Our sponsored swim was a great success. As a club, we swam across the English channel an incredible 3 times, and raised over £800 for the Rainbows Hospice charity. Very well done to everyone who took part, and a big 'Thank You' to Andy Young and his team for organising the event. Over one Saturday and one Tuesday swim session 66 children swam an amazing total of 5949 lengths. This equates to a total distance of 73.93 miles (the English Channel is only 21 miles), and on average every swimmer swam over 1 mile. The fundraising team at Rainbows Hospice sent us a certificate to acknowledge our achievement and said:
Overall, a great effort by all involved, and a great result. Well done! |
