The original swim challenge is in order to raise awareness of Diabetes and help Diabetes UK make a difference for people that are diagnosed every day. The challenge runs from the 22nd of February to the 22nd of May and aims to bring people together to have fun, all the while fighting for a great cause. You can arrange sponsors for each mile you swim and donate to Diabetes UK, approximately 700 people are diagnosed with Diabetes every day and each donation goes towards educating people diagnosed with how to manage their condition and the steps they can take towards a healthier lifestyle.
