RNLI Helvick Swim challenge is a sponsored swimming event hosted every year at the RNLI Helvick lifeboat station to raise vital funds in support of the lifeboats.The swim will take place on the 24th of July 2022.
The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileThe RNLI Helvick Swim is a family-friendly, community fundraiser event. Swimmers can choose to swim 4km or 2km along a marked course in Dungarvan Bay, finishing at Helvick Pier to a cheering crowd.
Instead of a signup fee, participants are requested to fundraise for the event by creating their own fundraiser page and accepting sponsorship from within their own network of contacts.
The event has grown enormously in popularity over the years and has become a huge community event, attracting swimmers and visitors to Helvick in the Waterford Gaeltacht on the mouth of Dungarvan Bay from all over Ireland and beyond.
The spectacle of the swimmers accompanied by a safety flotilla of kayakers, ribs and other boats swimming along the marked course in Dungarvan Bay will be quite a sight, and as they swim into Helvick Pier.
