Labelled the ‘Everest’ of swims, a team of Fusiliers will take on the challenge of swimming the width of the English Channel. This will see a team of 7 following a training plan, adapting their bodies to cold temperatures and open water swimming. The goal is to complete this within 16 hours.

We will be the first mixed infantry team ever to complete the swim.

We will be swimming for the Fusiliers Aid Society.

The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers Aid Society (FAS) is the Regimental benevolent and welfare fund of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers and its antecedent Regiments. FAS helps all Fusiliers, regardless of rank, serving and retired, and their families and dependants when they are in hardship or need.

Thank you in advance for your support.
