Channel Relay Swim · 15 August 2014
Many thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We are five East Dorset Open Water Swimming Club members who last October decided to take on the Channel. So, swimming throughout the winter months in preparation for our challenge ahead, no wetsuits allowed, Chilli Nutters we became. We will be swimming as a relay team in August from England to France and have chosen Mosaic as our charity to support. Please help us reach our target for Mosaic to help them continue their great work supporting bereaved children and families to cope.
We did it!! Friday 15th August 2014 we set out from Dover Shakespeare Beach in the morning. 15hours 14minutes later after enduring sea sickness, jelly fish, huge tankers, night time dark swims and a good choppy sea we arrived in France. Thank you so much for the huge generosity and support you have given the Chilli Nutters. It was great to know that so many of you were watching our track across the Channel online and sending us those 'keep going' vibes! Thanks a million, from The Chilli Nutters, Mark, Tom, Paolo, Jude, Chris & Ali (our late stand-in swimmer)
