Story

We will be taking part in the Great Scottish Swim (greatrun.org/great-swim/great-scottish-swim) as a team in support of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). Not swimming to win but to have fun and arrive safely ;o)

MSF are doing incredible work around the world, treating people who otherwise have no access to healthcare. MSF doctors often work under the most extreme conditions - their courage and humanity are admirable. 

So, we decided to do our little bit by braving the waters of Loch Lomond (probably colder this year as we are still hoping for Summer to arrive). Please give to MSF and if you fancy coming along to cheer us on that would be awesome! We might go for a glass of camomile tea once we are back in St Andrews...
