Maggie’s fundraiser for Level Water

Margaret Armitt is raising money for Level Water

Bantham Boomerang 2026 · 19 July 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Bantham 2026
Campaign by Level Water (RCN 1151510)
The Bantham Swoosh and Boomerang are world class swims in the Avon (Aune) estuary in Devon. The estuary is both shallow and sandy bottomed so you might spot the local crabs cruising around the river bed beneath you.

Story

Swim Three Rivers and change a life !

This summer I’m taking on the iconic Three Rivers Challenge which includes the River Dart 10k on the 4 th July a swim that takes you from Totnes in Devon to Greenway. Next is the Bantham Swoosh on the 18th July it is a 6K swim down the River Avon and then finally the Hurly Burly on the 12 th September. The Hurly Burly is a 10K swim set in North Wales in the dramatic Mawddach Estuary in Snowdonia. The swim journeys are all in fast flowing waters with beautiful scenery, which I will definitely be pausing to look up and take in !

It’s a proper challenge with hundreds of swimmers, including me , all chasing that final moment: I did it.

You all know that I love swimming and so I’m doing this to raise money for Level Water – a brilliant charity providing 1-to-1 swimming lessons for children with disabilities. These lessons are joyful, empowering, and completely life-changing.

Every £15 raised gives a child the chance to learn to swim.

If you can, please sponsor me – it really will make a difference and I will be extremely grateful for your support.

Many Thanks

Maggie
