Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie are calling on the nation to get down to the pool for Swimathon 2021 - thousands of swimmers, two great causes, one big charity challenge.

Story

I am going to swim 1.5k on 11th September 2021. Swimming is fun, but this way I can save lives and have fun together. Two members of my close family have had cancer. They have survived, but not everyone does. They were lucky. Treatments existed. If they had cancer earlier, they might not be here now. Not all cancers can be treated yet.

I'm not asking much, just a few pounds will do. But you never know who will have cancer, it might be you, your friends or your family. This way, you help billions of people across the globe. Only a few pounds, billions of lives. Thank you. Sammy
