Shelter Open Water Swim

About this event

Join Shelter for the epic challenge of an open water swim (with water temperature expected to be around 18°C). Enjoy all the benefits of cold water swimming (including boosting your immune system, improving circulation, reducing those aches and pains and improving your mental health), whilst supporting Shelter in the Fight for home.

Every participant will receive their very own Shelter branded swim hat to wear on the day. Join us for a fun day out and bring colleagues, family and friends along to take part with you or cheer you on from dry land. Children over the age of 8 can join us in the water for a fun family activity. The Lakeside Cafe will be open selling refreshments and we'll have a raffle full of fantastic prizes to try your luck.

Home is a human right. It's our foundation and it's where we thrive. Yet, every day millions of people are being devastated by the housing emergency. We exist to defend the right to a safe home. Because home is everything. Your fundraising will help ensure we are there for those facing homelessness.

If you have any questions about the event or concerns about accessibility, please get in touch with us to discuss.
