Story

South lakes women go swimming

We are a fabulous group of women in the South Lakes who have become friends through our love of open water swimming.

We have set ourselves a challenge to swim the length, a mile or dip in all of the 14 lakes and meres in our lovely Lake District, between April and September.

Follow our crazy adventures as we tick off each swim!! 🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️

Cancer has effected all of us in some way, either family/friends or personally. We have chosen this fantastic local charity as they were a massive support for 2 of the group when they went through breast cancer.

Cancercare is a local cancer and bereavement charity that helps people discover their capacity for life when times are tough - with the professional help, emotional support and collective strength to face whatever's next.

More than 90% of CancerCare's work is funded by people like you who donate, fundraise or give a gift in their Will.
