Event: Swim Serpentine 2023, on 16 September 2023
A team of intrepid wild swimmers are tackling Swim Serpentine to raise funds to help Housing Justice alleviate homelessness in England and Wales.

Story

I am part of a team of wild swimmers who are taking on the Swim Serpentine challenge to raise vital funds for Housing Justice (the homeless charity I work for).

Some members of the team are aiming to swim half a mile, while others are going for the 1 mile challenge - including me! I haven't had as much time to train as I would like as life has kept getting in the way, and a mile is further than I have swum outdoors before. This will be really pushing my limits!

Please make a donation if you can! Thank you very much!

Housing Justice is a charity working to alleviate homelessness in all its forms. They work in partnership to help provide those experiencing homelessness with a safe and stable home through the winter night shelter network, our hosting programmes in England and Wales, the Faith in Affordable Housing programme and the Citadel project.
