Story


Some of you may be aware that over the last year I have been having treatment for Skin Cancer. While one was being treated another appeared. After trying different treatments I had 2 cancers that were removed this week and the care that I was given was excellent!!

I have been advised that there is a 50% chance of more cancers appearing so I am swimming to raise awareness and funding for new treatments.

On your marks.... Swimathon is back in 2018!

Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie are teaming up and heading down to the pool for Swimathon 2018 – thousands of swimmers, two great causes, one big charity challenge.

Cancer Research UK, the world’s leading cancer charity dedicated to saving lives through research, will be involved in Swimathon for the first time. 

Marie Curie, the UK’s leading charity for people with any terminal illness and their families, has been Swimathon's charity partner ten times since it launched in 1986 and has raised over £17 million for the charity through the event during that time. 

By taking part in the world’s biggest fundraising swimming event you will be fundraising for two incredible causes.

A challenge for everyone. A #SwimForAll
