We have taken a deep breath and signed up to this wonderful event this summer .

Swimming 6km down an estuary in Devon in July 2024

We have both been on a bit of a front crawl journey, progressing from hardly managing a few strokes without drowning , to managing to swim a relatively respectable distance. Relatively ....

Along the way we have had a fantastic journey , taking the opportunity to get a bit fitter , getting to know our local pools , swimming inside and outside , with a regular dose of natural water thrown in for good measure.

This distance is a long way for us and both are nervous about being able to keep going . But we are now training in earnest and excited about the warmer weather , enabling us to get out of pools into the lakes and rivers around us

And we are fundraising for a wonderful cause.

Level Water use the power of swimming to improve lives for children with disabilities, providing 1-to-1 swimming lessons, and giving them the chance enjoy the water as much as we do.

Thankyou in advance if you feel able to make a donation , however small
