It will take a little while for us to collect all the sponsor monies and publish the final results

Good causes who have a local need, please watch the Harborough Mail for the form of application and details, a copy of the press release and how to apply are also available here

Note - Deadline for applications is 12 Noon Wednesday 23rd May 2012

Be an early bird (or is that fish?) To register interest for Spring 2013 (date to be confirmed)  Please e- mail

The purpose is to raise many thousands of pounds which will be donated entirely to Local and Rotary Charities, helping those who need help, and providing fun days for our local community

This large and exciting event is open to all comers and teams of up to six may be entered by Schools, Sports Clubs, Youth Clubs and other groups, Businesses, Professions,  Shops, Family, work mates or just mates!

Swimming teams will raise sponsorship money, and already teams are signing up for next year, but we are also looking for local organisations to get involved, sponsor the event and thus promote themselves.

Please contact us if you are interested in sponsoring, swimming or both! Swimmers will be of all ages and abilities, this is not a race or a competition, each team of up to 6 will have 55 minutes swim time (relay style) and we suggest they are sponsored for taking part, rather than per length. We have left the 2012 leaflets available on the buttons to the left to provide some details until the new ones for 2013 are issued.

Registered Charity Number:- 1034200
