For the last 9 years I have dreamt about taking part in the Castle to Castle swim and finally I shall be doing just that on Saturday 25th June. Am I nervous - yes, am I concerned I won’t be able to complete it - yes, is this going to be a very emotional swim for me - yes, but I shall give it my best shot, that is all I can. So, if you would like to sponsor me and help raise funds for the amazing guys and gals who volunteer for the RNLI and encourage me in my way, please do. Thank you. X

The  Castle 2 Castle Swim is an iconic one-mile open water sea swim across the Carrick Roads. It starts at Pendennis Castle in Falmouth and finishes at St Mawes Castle on the Roseland Peninsula.The event raises money to support the RNLI's volunteer lifeboat crews and lifeguards. Its expected that 2022 will be one of the RNLI's busiest years in its 198 year history, so with the charity relying on the public's voluntary donations every pound raised will help to save more lives around the coastline.The swim is a fantastic event largely run by volunteers, without whom it wouldn't be possible. It promises to be great fun with a fantastic atmosphere, so do come along and get involved.For more information e-mail castle2castle@rnli.org.uk or phone 07901517615You really are helping to save lives.
