I’ve done the Swimathon many times before and have been raising money for these charities for years. This year, I get the chance to swim alongside my little 10 year old sister, Zara. We are both individually doing 5K, so in told between us we’re doing 10K. 

Zara's going round her school friends and activity groups asking sponsoring. So I said I would put it online and do some fundraising for us this way. Honestly, every little bit of money helps, and once accumulated it will go further than you think. So please, as little or as much as you wish, is most appreciated. If not to sponsor me, then for my little sister. It really does go to such a great cause!

Thank you!

Join us for Swimathon 2019 – the World’s largest annual fundraising swim. Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie are calling on the nation to get down to the pool for Swimathon 2019 – thousands of swimmers, two great causes, one big charity challenge.

Cancer Research UK, the world’s leading cancer charity is dedicated to saving lives through research. They don’t receive any government funding for their work, so their progress is all thanks to the support of people like you.

Marie Curie provides expert care, guidance and support for people living with any terminal illness, and their families. Around 2,100 Marie Curie Nurses work day and night, in people’s homes all over the UK, providing hands-on care to people when they need it most. 

On 29^th – 31^st March 2019, over 21,000 swimmers will be heading down to over 600 pools across the UK to raise money for our two amazing charity partners. 

Together we can really make a difference.
