By taking on the Bantham Boomerang I'm raising money for Level Water, a charity who use the power of swimming to improve lives for children with disabilities. Starting with 1-1 swimming lessons, they provide opportunities for the children to learn to swim. From physical development to social and emotional confidence, swimming is a vehicle to change their lives for the better.And they believe EVERYONE should have the opportunity to learn to swim and fall in love with the water.

The challenge.. 

heading upriver on the incoming tide. When the tide turns, so do the swimmers, swimming back downriver with the outgoing tide, swooshing into Bantham Beach and the finish line.

The distance swum will depend on how fast you swim, but all swim speeds are welcome. Some swimmers will make it all the way to the turnaround pontoon upstream before the tide turns, others will have a shorter journey.
