Story

Every year the team at Crewe Swimming Pool take part in a charity event in order to raise thousands of pounds for our chosen charities. We have raised well over £8.000 over the last 3 years doing different events that we plan and arrange ourselves. We don't hold back with the 100 mile challenge that we did last year and because of that motivation and commitment we have seen the money raised increase every year. 

What could we do to top that this year? Well Richard and Paul decided to cycle Hadrian's wall, the 'Coast to Coast the Roman Way", cycling between Ravenglass to South Shields, which will mean sitting on a bike for 174 miles which will be done in 1 day. This is our biggest challenge yet and our last as Crewe Swimming Pool as we will be moving into our new Lifestyle Centre next year, where we will join other colleagues who hopefully have the same passion for charity work as we do. 

We have chosen two charities this year, British Heart Foundation and also Blood Bikes. Please see our other Just giving page to donate to our other charity. Think of the challenge that we will be doing, the pain we will put our bodies through during the mammoth of a challenge. Donating some money to inspire us to complete this event will go along way for these charities.
