The 2.6 Challenge is a simple and fun way for everyone to do their bit to help save the UKs charities.

Story

Save the UK's CharitiesGeneral fundraising has been hit very hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of fundraising events have been cancelled and many charities, particularly smaller ones, are struggling to maintain services because of this huge reduction in income.This impacts all sectors of society from children to the elderly as well as the vital work in areas such as palliative care, serious diseases, mental health, housing support, food supplies and countless others that charities support.

Aim.
 I need to swim 1351 strokes per day this is equivalent to my local pool (Splash-point) swimming 54.04 lengths ie. 1351 strokes using a tether and a small pool in my back garden!

To meet the 2.6 challenge I have to swim 35.1Kms in ‘26 days’ - this is my official 2.6 target (or 26 target).

Please sponsor me as I aim to support the NHS and my chosen charity affected by lockdown ‘Cancer Research UK.’
