Huw's Great North Swim for Mums In Need

Huw Davies is raising money for Mums In Need

Great North Swim 2026 · 12 June 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

MIN urgently need to raise £30,000 to become a national charity, enabling us to support more mums and their children who are facing the trauma of post-separation abuse. Your support can help us make this crucial step forward. Get involved today.

Story

I'm taking on the challenging Great North Swim to raise much needed funds for Mums In Need (MIN), a Sheffield-based charity helping those who have left an abusive relationship and continue to endure post separation abuse.

Almost reaching the end of an 8-year cancer recovery, I now want to turn my experiences into action by supporting a cause close to my heart.

I’ve seen the devastation post-separation abuse causes - not just to mothers, but to their children, families, and wider support networks. This is why I’m taking on the Great North Swim to help MIN expand their vital services nationwide.

I will be swimming 5km (similar in effort to a half marathon) in Lake Windermere, Cumbria, in June 2026 - and I don't expect the water to be warm or clear!

By sponsoring me, you'll be helping MIN expand their services nationally so that more mothers and children can receive the vital support they desperately need to rebuild their lives after abuse.

Every donation makes a difference. Thank you!
