Raise money for SARA through swimming in the Wild Wye Swim!

Story

In September, I'm swimming 7k in the beautiful River Wye near Symonds Yat, to raise money for SARA - The Severn Area Rescue Association.

Since January, I have been swimming, come rain or shine, at Netherton Reservoir. When I started, the water was only 3°c- thankfully the water has warmed up a little now but I'm looking forward to my first full Winter season!

Open Water Swimming is a new passion of mine, it brings me pure happiness and without organisations like SARA, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the waterways and the amazing benefits the water brings.

Thank you in advance for your donations!
