The English Channel swim, akin to Mount Everest in swimming, has fewer successful swimmers than climbers.

I’ll be joining a 6-person relay team, swimming from Dover to France in 12-18 hours in July 2025.

Drowning, a silent epidemic, claims 236,000 lives annually, many being children. It's the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide, representing preventable losses. SwimTayka's mission: give disadvantaged communities access to swimming teachers, providing life skills and creating a legacy for today's children to teach the next generation.

SwimTayka aims to reduce drowning's impact on families and communities, empowering them with essential swimming skills. The organization fosters a connection between children and local water environments, emphasizing ecosystem preservation. Combining swimming lessons, environmental education, and community engagement, SwimTayka strives to make a lasting difference in children's lives and their communities.
