How do I get involved and what should I expect?

All you need to do is chose an event you’d like to join and send us an email to tell us you would like to join in. Turn up at the venue with your trunks, towel, shower kit etc. if you have a wetsuit, tow float and a brightly coloured swim hat bring them too. Sometimes the water is a bit cold and you might prefer to wear a wetsuit. If you haven’t got a wetsuit, tow float or hat let us know in advance and we can lend you them. You will then meet the team, have a quick safety brief and then split into small groups depending on ability. It’s then just a case of taking the plunge and experiencing the magic of open water swimming. We swim at the slowest person’s pace and keep together. It’s not a race, it’s an team experience. When we have finished, showered and changed we have a coffee and a catch up together before heading off.
