Jersey France Challenge 2025

Now in its fourth year, we were thrilled to once again co-sponsor the Jersey France Challenge, which took place on Saturday, 2nd August 2025.

Huge congratulations to all the incredible participants who took on this demanding 14-mile open water swim from La Coupe Point, Jersey to Carteret, Normandy—raising vital funds for the fantastic charity, Dementia Jersey so far £15k and rising.

Teams travelled from across the globe to take part, including our very own Craig Swart, who’s always up for a challenge! The weather was absolutely glorious — sunshine, calm seas, and (of course) a few jellyfish who seemed to enjoy it too!

We’re proud to support such an inspiring event and look forward to doing so again in 2026!

Big thanks to 3DEvents for managing the event, Kroll (fellow sponsors), David Ferguson Photography and Bam Perspectives-Jersey for capturing the event and Jersey Lifeboat Association for their impeccable water safety support
