Event: Chill Swim: Windermere 2023, on 2 September 2023
Each year, the Master Cutler in Hallamshire chooses a charity to support through the 'Master Cutler's Challenge'. This year, Dame Julie Kenny DBE DL has chosen a charity very close to her heart - Wentworth Woodhouse Preservation Trust.

Story

It is a long time since I swam my first mile in Windermere for the Master Cutlers challenge, I have now challenged myself to swim from end to the other.  Somewhere in the region of 11miles if I swim straight.

Please help me raise funds for our Master Cutlers chosen charity this year.  Wentworth Woodhouse is one of the core pillars in South Yorkshire providing community and educational programmes and delivering training in dedicated skills such as entrepreneurship, conservation, heritage, digital and hospitality. It is not only about the building, but supports a wide range of people and communities in low-income households, including ethnic and minority interests and disability groups to help enrich their lives with cultural activities.

It is well worth a visit and pledging some of your hard earned for the projects they do, if not for that, then just to see me suffer!!

Many thanks and best wishes, Vince
