Pier to pier swim
We did it
On 9th February 2025 we successfully raised £25 with 2 supporters in 28 days

I aim to swim 1.4 miles from Boscombe to Bournemouth to raise money for this charity, run 100% by volunteers

Mam lived in North Wales, I in the New Forest but we both enjoyed the variety of Hospital Radio Ipswich and we send requests to eachother through their live shows. We also discussed the pause for thought, word of the day and quizzes. So it became our bridge across the miles. 

Mam passed away in November 2023 and I am raising money for this wonderful charity in her memory. 

In order to do so I will swim 1.4 miles from Boscombe pier to Bournemouth pier on 5th July 2025

Got an idea like this?

Over £200 million has been raised from our crowd to support the projects they love! Plus tens of millions more unlocked by our partners.
