Swimathon presentation

Thanks to all those who came along to our Rotary Club Swimathon Funds Charity Giveaway at Durham Town Hall yesterday! It is excellent to see so many charity recipients all together and to support the fabulous work that they do in our local area. This year, the 10th annual Swimathon raised a record-breaking £9,751.41! Many thanks to Michael Costello for his fantastic organisation skills, to Freemans Quay Leisure Centre for having us, and to all our swimmers who took part. The funds raised have been split between our swimmers’ own chosen charities, and the Mayor’s chosen charity, the Great North East Air Ambulance. Overall, the event has raised £73,073 since it first began in 2008. We look forward to another great event back at Freemans Quay on 17-18 November 2018.
