Story
Team Why Oh Why are swimming for 24 hours in an epic challenge of cold water lake swimming from 23 to 24 September 2023.
Yes, it's ridiculous, we know!
There are 6 crazy team members in Team Why Oh Why:
- Terhi Makela
- Bob Bradley
- Emma Gibbard
- Natalie Lee
- Stanley Ulijaszek
- Camilla Woodhouse
It's a relay, so we'll be taking it in turns to swim for an hour each, come rain or shine, day or night. The whole team believe in the power of swimming for mental and physical health so we're hoping to raise lots of money for Level Water, a charity that uses swimming to improve the lives of children with disabilities.
About Level Water
We're raising money for Level Water so that more children can experience that first splash. Holding your breath. The echoes of laughter. The wet hair. Lifted spirits. The joy of gliding through water. The smile that lasts all day.Swimming is like nothing else. The skills you develop, the confidence you build and the joys you feel are all universal. Yet access to swimming in the UK is not. Level Water use the power of swimming to improve lives for children with disabilities. Everyone should have the opportunity to learn to swim and fall in love with the water.
