Story

Every 45 minutes, a man dies from prostate cancer in the UK. 

We are raising money for The Chestnut Appeal who help Prostate Cancer patients and their families across Devon and Cornwall.  We are asking you to sponsor us to swim to Drakes Island and back for 1.5km in open water!  

This is a massive personal challenge for both of us, so we appreciate any support that you can offer us.  On the morning of Sunday 1st July we will be setting off from the beach at Firestone Bay and swimming to Drakes Island and back to the beach.  It is an organised open water swim with a distance of around 1.5km.
