Organised by London Marathon Events, this is a not-to-be missed, open water swim event held in and around the lovely Serpentine in Hyde Park; the very same venue for the open water swimming competition at the London 2012 Olympic Games no less!

It’s a great way to do something positive in September which is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

Choose your distance with options of 1/2 mile, 1 mile or 2 miles plus there’s plenty of lakeside activity for friends and family to enjoy as they cheer you on.

Minimum fundraising targets:

½-mile: £100 

1-mile: £160

2-miles: £225

How your support helps

£5 Could restock a hospital fridge with ice lollies and cold drinks to help soothe child suffering with side effects of chemotherapy 

£12 Could fund a ‘creative and wellbeing’ pack to be delivered to families in isolation whose child has cancer or a life-challenging condition.

£30 Would offer a child a virtual educational support session, supporting their learning and building confidence whilst they are in isolation at home due to the Coronavirus crisis. 

£100 Provides 5 hours of personalised support for a seriously ill child, their siblings and parents from a Momentum Children’s Charity Family Support Worker.
