Starting on June 10th I will be taking part in three swim events and raising money for Level Water - a fantastic charity which provides swimming lessons for children with disabilities.

First up is the Shepperton 24 hour swim relay with a team of eight taking it in turns to swim over 24 hours. Then in July will be the Bantham Swoosh, a 6k estuary swim down the River Avon in Devon. And finally the Dart 10k in September, the first, and arguably the finest, marathon-distance swim in the UK (apparently).
