Go to great lengths for people living with cancer 

There are 3 million people living with cancer in the UK today, who need our support now more than ever.

That’s why we’re asking you to fasten your goggles and swim 21 miles throughout June and July, the equivalent distance of the Channel, and raise £200 to fund our vital support services.

Swim It is for everyone, whether you’re dipping your toe in the water for the first time or a fierce front crawler. You don’t have to be an Olympian to make a herculean difference.

Getting started is as easy as...
