Story
The Rotary MK Swimathon is an annual, fun, sponsored swimming event. Since 1997, it has raised over half a million pounds for local charities, with teams from the nominated charities, Rotarians, a few businesses, family and friends taking part.
We welcome teams of 6 of any ability, who swim for 55 minutes on a relay basis. Teams can be made up in any combination, including members of a family, friends, members of a club, or work colleagues. It is a fun event and colourfast T shirts can be worn over swim wear if preferred.
This year we're encouraging more businesses to put in one or two teams. It's a great way to rebuild the team spirit which was lost during 2020's lockdown. Teams can make it competitive if they wish, with number of lengths completed or amount of sponsorship raised.
However you wish to swim, please set up your own fundraising page, using the orange button on the right of the home page. Money will then automatically be sent to the Swimathon Account with 25% gift aid added.
