CHRISTMAS SWIM 2021

We will be holding an event this year.
We will follow the rules and guidance and ask that attendees also observe any conditions that may be in place on the day. 
This year's theme is paint the town red!

We are raising money for Wales Air Ambulance

During this national crisis, they need your help now more than ever.

Wales Air Ambulance covers the whole of Wales every single day. Each year their helicopters attend around 2,500 missions, covering rural countryside and our bustling towns and cities. This includes the length of our Welsh coastline and across our vast mountain ranges. Their four airbase operations in Caernarfon, Llanelli, Welshpool and Cardiff are ready to saves lives wherever needed.
