Our Charity Swimming Event
Well, as we knew we would, we’ve bounced back and are delighted to ask you to join us and take part in our CELEBRATORY SWIMATHON on SATURDAY 25TH MARCH 2023 by forming a team, or teams and enjoying all the fun and laughter of the day.
Teams from Primary and Secondary Schools, Guides, Brownies, Scouts, Cubs, Football, Youth and other groups, organisations, families etc. from Portishead, Clevedon, Nailsea, Backwell, Avonmouth and surrounding areas take part each year.
Teams of 6 swim in a relay at their own pace (it is definitely not a race) for 35 minutes.
Age is no barrier but all entrants must be able to complete a length of the 25 m. pool competently. They should also be aware that during their session they will be starting some of their lengths in the water at the deep end of the pool.
We have special arrangements in place for weaker or non-swimmers but need advance notice of anyone in this category.
THE PURPOSE OF THE EVENT IS THAT THROUGH SPONSORSHIP ALL SWIMMERS RAISE AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE.All proceeds in aid of : The Grand Appeal (Bristol Children's Hospital Charity)
Alzheimer's Research UK : School's Projects & other local groups and Rotary Charities
