One of our Partners, Craig Swart, embarked upon an epic challenge to swim the Channel and completed this extraordinary feat in 15 hours and 21 minutes. To put this challenge in perspective, more people have managed to climb Everest than have swam the Channel. We want to express our congratulations to Craig for his achievement and to show our support, we have donated £1,000 to The Jamsey Foundation to mark this incredible accomplishment.
And to top it off, two weeks after this challenge, he swam the Lake of Geneva!
Well done Craig!
