Cancer Research UK and Marie Curie are calling on the nation to get down to the pool for Swimathon 2024 - thousands of swimmers, two great causes, one big charity challenge.

Story

We are swimming in memory of our Dad, Phil, who died from a brain tumour last June. We especially wanted to thank Marie Curie for the care they bestowed upon Dad during such a difficult time. They looked after Dad with dignity and compassion  and we were so grateful for their support.

In raising money for them we hope that other families will also be able to benefit from their amazing service.
