I’m taking part in Make Waves for Marwell’s Penguins, a sponsored swim with World of Swimming and Marwell Wildlife, to help support the Humboldt penguins at Marwell Zoo.

Humboldt penguins are incredible swimmers. In the wild, they swim against ocean currents, helping them stay strong, active and healthy.

At Marwell, the team are always looking for creative ways to enhance the lives of animals. After a successful trial last year, plans are underway to install a permanent flow cannon in the penguin pool. This will introduce a gentle current for the penguins to swim against - adding an extra development that encourages natural behaviours and activity.

As you know I LOVE swimming and i love the zoo , so I am going to be swimming 1 MILE to help fund raise for the penguins.

Please could you sponsor my swim and help me reach my target to help this amazing animals.

Thank you!
