Melody, Jack & Eveline are 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 layer of enrichment that encourages natural behaviours and activity.

By sponsoring my swim, you’ll be helping to support these ongoing enhancements and contribute to the continued wellbeing of these amazing animals. Thank you!
