Story
Hull University Swimming Club (HUSC) is having a lot of trouble this year in terms of finances due to the high costs of pool rental, which means we make a loss each year, and the little financial support we receive from our Sports Union. If this situation doesn’t improve then the Sports Union have said that we may have to fold, which means that students at the University will miss out on an opportunity to compete, keep fit or even learn to swim.
There is no pool on the University campus and only one that our swimmers can easily access, which is controlled by the local council. Other sports clubs in the University have facilities on campus so don’t have to pay rent to use them unlike us.
HUSC also have to provide their own lifeguards and coaches which adds to the club’s payments.
Our swimmers compete at BUCS, which is a national championships, and don’t perform as well as we could because of our lack of quality facilities that other Universities have.
To help HUSC out of the deep water, the club’s swimmers will collectively be swimming the length of the English Channel (33,600m or 1,344 lengths) in a 1 hour sponsored swim to raise money. This will happen in April.
If you could please make a donation, no matter how big or small, that would be greatly appreciated and would help keep HUSC swimming.

6 years agoHi guys, Sorry that this is a bit late but we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who donated which will go a long way in helping HUSC going forward. We would also like to inform you that not only did HUSC achieve their goal of swimming the distance of the Channel collectively, but we smashed it with a whopping 43,700 metres so a massive well done to all our swimmers who took part! Many thanks HUSC Committee
