Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie are calling on the nation to get down to the pool for Swimathon 2020 - thousands of swimmers, two great causes, one big charity challenge.

Story

This year the whole family are taking to the pool for the swimathon challenge.  It is the first time for Sammy and Mari and we are all very excited!  Mari only swam in the deep end for the first time last week, so she's really breaking new ground!

This year would have been the boy's grandfather, Alan's, 90th birthday. It also marks 20 years since their Nanny Joan passed away, who worked so diligently for Marie Curie until a few months before she died.  

We are aiming to do 9,000 metres as a family with Milo trying for a mighty 2,500 metres and Sammy a whopping 1,500 metres (nearly a MILE !) on his first attempt.

This is a very big effort especially for the boys so please give generously if you can for this very worthy cause.

Thank you so much.
