On Saturday 20 September, two teams of 12 Bryanston swimmers will take on a 24-hour open-water relay. Switching each hour, every swimmer will aim to complete up to four hours in the water over the course of the event, held at Lake 32 in the Cotswolds.
By the time the teams emerge at 12 noon on Sunday 21 September, they will have shared an incredible challenge – whether under sunshine, showers, or a moonlit sky. More importantly, they will have raised awareness and funds for the outstanding charity Level Water.
This is the first time our pupils are taking part in this event, so please show your support by clicking here.
Head of Swimming Richard Johnson, commented: “Swimming is like nothing else. The skills you develop, the confidence you gain, and the joy you experience are universal. Yet access to swimming in the UK is not. Level Water uses the power of swimming to transform lives by providing lessons for children with disabilities.
“As a team, we are hoping to raise £3,000 for this amazing cause, as well as enjoying the camping and swimming experience. Some staff are swimming too – we are a hardy bunch! The pupils have really taken the lead, organising the supplies, equipment and spearheading the JustGiving page.”
