<p>Last year the Great North Swim was unfortunately cancelled due to a sudden bloom of toxic algae in the lake! This year we're giving it another go and to make up the distance we didn't do last year, this year we will be taking part in the 2 mile swim at Lake Windermere (water temperature about 14C!!) on 17th June.</p> <p>We have been continuing to swim for our university teams and have taken part in other open water swims over the last few years. Please help us to raise money for this brilliant cause.</p> <p>Prostate cancer was brought to our attention very recently when our Grandad was diagnosed in 2009. We hope to raise money to allow further research into diagnosis and therapy for this disease, the most common cancer in men.</p> <p>Please give generously!
