🏊💚 WHAT A DAY AT OUR SWIMATHON! 💚🏊
What an amazing effort from everyone involved in our Swimathon event — and after adding up all the distances completed, we officially smashed our double marathon target! 👏👏
We even managed to get Great Oaks Hospice founder Sheila Evans into the pool, while Deb certainly arrived dressed for the occasion 😄
A huge thank you to the team at Bathurst Pool for allowing us to use their fantastic facility. If you haven’t visited yet, you really should — it’s an absolute gem 🏊
Thank you as well to the swim club members who came along and took part, plus every single swimmer who got involved and helped make the day such a success.
And the support has been incredible… so far we’ve raised an amazing £1050 — and the total is still rising! 💚
Thank you all so much for your support, generosity and effort.
