Story

Lucy and I are swimming chasing the tide up & down an estuary in Devon on Saturday 6th July 2024. I am truly bad at swimming straight and I’m not good in cold water either so this will be a big challenge for me. Lucy will be miles ahead of me and will consequently swim much further. However neighter of us are used to open water swimming!

Whilst doing this we are raising money so children with disabilities can enjoy the water as much as we do. Level Water use the power of swimming to improve lives for children with disabilities. Just £15 can change a life. Please support us in this epic challenge by donating. We think that everyone should have the opportunity to learn to swim.
